Help Byung-hun keep the Community Pantry pantry stocked

Since 2022, our volunteer team has run Community Pantry every Monday from the back of the parish hall. We started with 12 families, and now we feed 304 each week. Donations have dropped by about 55% this winter, while the line has grown every single week. We rely on volunteers - 10 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Busan market and keep every receipt. Each $25 feeds a family of four for a week. All of the funds go to groceries, fresh produce, and cold-storage costs. Where the $1,600 goes: • Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $740 • Fresh vegetables and fruit: $320 • Baby formula and diapers: $360 • Refrigeration and electricity: $180 Thanks for being kind about this. - Byung-hun
