Help Carolina keep the Neighbors' Pantry pantry stocked
The Neighbors' Pantry pantry in Santa Fe is running low just as demand rises; $700 will stock it for 8 weeks.

Since 2020, our volunteer team has run Neighbors' Pantry every Wednesday from the back of the old library basement. We started with 23 families, and now we feed 150 each week.
Donations have dropped by about 55% this school holidays, while the line has grown every single week.
We rely on volunteers - 19 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Santa Fe market and keep every receipt.
Each $10 feeds a family of four for a week.
All of the funds go to groceries, fresh produce, and cold-storage costs.
Where the $700 goes:
• Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $210
• Fresh vegetables and fruit: $260
• Baby formula and diapers: $120
• Refrigeration and electricity: $110
With deep gratitude,
Carolina
