Help Filip keep the Neighbors' Pantry pantry stocked
Filip runs a volunteer pantry feeding 201 families; this fund restocks shelves for the summer.
🇵🇱 Wrocław, Lower Silesia, Poland1,042 views
Since 2021, our volunteer team has run Neighbors' Pantry every Sunday from the back of the mosque courtyard. We started with 8 families, and now we feed 201 each week.
Donations have dropped by about 58% this summer, 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 Wrocław market and keep every receipt.
Each $20 feeds a family of four for a week.
I'll post the weekly shopping receipts and a photo of the shelves each Sunday.
Where the $1,100 goes:
• Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $680
• Fresh vegetables and fruit: $145
• Baby formula and diapers: $115
• Refrigeration and electricity: $160
I hope life is good to you.

Thinking of you, Filip. Great idea, hope you get there.
is there anything that isn't money that would help Filip?
Thank you. If you're in Wrocław I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Fair thing to want to know.
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Greetings from The Hague.
projects like this are what make a place worth living in. I'm in hospitality myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Love from Aurangabad.
Thinking of you and your family, Filip. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. God bless
