Since 2019, our volunteer team has run the Thursday Table every Sunday from the back of a community center. We started with 20 families, and now we feed 390 each week.
Donations have dropped by about 56% this summer, while the line has grown every single week.
We rely on volunteers - 12 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Kandy market and keep every receipt.
Each $10 feeds a family of four for a week.
All of the funds go to groceries, fresh produce, and cold-storage costs.
Where the $500 goes:
• Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $250
• Fresh vegetables and fruit: $125
• Baby formula and diapers: $105
• Refrigeration and electricity: $20
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
