Feed 393 families each week at Bread & Beans Kitchen in Tema

Since 2023, our volunteer team has run Bread & Beans Kitchen every Thursday from the back of the mosque courtyard. We started with 15 families, and now we feed 393 each week. Donations have dropped by about 59% this rainy season, while the line has grown every single week. We rely on volunteers - 7 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Tema market and keep every receipt. Each $5 feeds a family of four for a week. I'll post the weekly shopping receipts and a photo of the shelves each Sunday. Where the $400 goes: • Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $125 • Fresh vegetables and fruit: $185 • Baby formula and diapers: $80 • Refrigeration and electricity: $10 If you're reading this, thank you.
