Help Eunice keep the Bread & Beans Kitchen pantry stocked
The Bread & Beans Kitchen pantry in Jinja is running low just as demand rises; $500 will stock it for 8 weeks.

Since 2021, our volunteer team has run Bread & Beans Kitchen every Friday from the back of the mosque courtyard. We started with 20 families, and now we feed 220 each week.
Donations have dropped by about 46% this summer, while the line has grown every single week.
We rely on volunteers - 9 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Jinja market and keep every receipt.
Each $5 feeds a family of four for a week.
All of the funds go to groceries, fresh produce, and cold-storage costs.
Where the $500 goes:
• Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $200
• Fresh vegetables and fruit: $175
• Baby formula and diapers: $65
• Refrigeration and electricity: $60
Thanks for being kind about this.

Thinking of you. Projects like this are what make a place worth living in. God bless.
Hope things get better soon, Eunice. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Take care.
so sorry you're going through this, Eunice. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. All the best.
