Feed 94 families each week at the Harvest Pantry in Cincinnati

Since 2021, our volunteer team has run the Harvest Pantry every Monday from the back of a school canteen. We started with 14 families, and now we feed 94 each week. Donations have dropped by about 46% this winter, 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 Cincinnati market and keep every receipt. Each $55 feeds a family of four for a week. All of the funds go to groceries, fresh produce, and cold-storage costs. Where the $2,450 goes: • Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $1,050 • Fresh vegetables and fruit: $820 • Baby formula and diapers: $320 • Refrigeration and electricity: $260 Thank you so much.
