Feed 77 families each week at the Sunday Shelf in Tamale

Since 2019, our volunteer team has run the Sunday Shelf every Monday from the back of a school canteen. We started with 30 families, and now we feed 77 each week. Donations have dropped by about 54% this winter, while the line has grown every single week. We rely on volunteers - 17 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Tamale 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 $450 goes: • Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $280 • Fresh vegetables and fruit: $85 • Baby formula and diapers: $50 • Refrigeration and electricity: $35 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Michael
