Help Emma keep the Community Pantry pantry stocked

Since 2022, our volunteer team has run Community Pantry every Thursday from the back of the mosque courtyard. We started with 14 families, and now we feed 342 each week. Donations have dropped by about 52% this harvest gap, while the line has grown every single week. We rely on volunteers - 11 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the San Diego market and keep every receipt. Each $35 feeds a family of four for a week. All of the funds go to groceries, fresh produce, and cold-storage costs. Where the $2,600 goes: • Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $1,400 • Fresh vegetables and fruit: $420 • Baby formula and diapers: $410 • Refrigeration and electricity: $370 Thanks for being kind about this.
