Since 2021, our volunteer team has run Neighbors' Pantry every Friday from the back of a community center. We started with 9 families, and now we feed 60 each week.
Donations have dropped by about 54% this harvest gap, while the line has grown every single week.
We rely on volunteers - 18 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Dammam market and keep every receipt.
Each $15 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 $1,400 goes:
• Baby formula and diapers: $270
• Fresh vegetables and fruit: $580
• Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $550
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Hang in there, Hadi. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Thinking of Dammam.

wishing you peace, Hadi. Your post was clear and honest. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Thinking of Dammam
Sending strength, Hadi. Looking forward to the next update. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Love from Nîmes.
Good luck. Hope this works out for you. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Greetings from Anaheim.
