Since 2021, our volunteer team has run the Second Helping every Saturday from the back of a community center. We started with 14 families, and now we feed 92 each week. Donations have dropped by about 46% this rainy season, while the line has grown every single week. We rely on volunteers - 6 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Busan market and keep every receipt. Each $20 feeds a family of four for a week. All of the funds go to groceries, fresh produce, and cold-storage costs. Where the $1,950 goes: • Baby formula and diapers: $460 • Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $820 • Fresh vegetables and fruit: $670 Thank you so much.

  • take care, Su-bin. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. I'm in farming myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Love from Giza.

    • Thinking of you. Your post was clear and honest. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. God bless.
