Since 2023, our volunteer team has run Community Pantry every Monday from the back of a community center. We started with 18 families, and now we feed 368 each week.
Donations have dropped by about 44% this school holidays, while the line has grown every single week.
We rely on volunteers - 16 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Lahore market and keep every receipt.
Each $5 feeds a family of four for a week.
All of the funds go to groceries, fresh produce, and cold-storage costs.
Where the $450 goes:
• Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $260
• Fresh vegetables and fruit: $90
• Baby formula and diapers: $50
• Refrigeration and electricity: $50
Thanks for reading all this.
