Since 2023, our volunteer team has run the Sunday Shelf every Saturday from the back of the old library basement. We started with 20 families, and now we feed 80 each week.
Donations have dropped by about 37% this rainy season, while the line has grown every single week.
We rely on volunteers - 16 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Nuremberg market and keep every receipt.
Each $45 feeds a family of four for a week.
All of the funds go to groceries, fresh produce, and cold-storage costs.
Where the $2,950 goes:
• Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $1,200
• Fresh vegetables and fruit: $1,100
• Baby formula and diapers: $380
• Refrigeration and electricity: $270
Every share and every dollar helps.
Updates from Dominik
We're at 16% thanks to 12 of you. I made the first payment toward baby formula and diapers. More news soon.
Update from Nuremberg: I made the first payment toward baby formula and diapers. We're at 9% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.

everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My husband and I read this together. Thinking of Nuremberg.
stay strong, Dominik. It takes guts to ask. Well done. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.
Sending strength. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I hope January is when things finally get easier. Love from Cleveland.
