Help Hassan keep the the Sunday Shelf pantry stocked
The the Sunday Shelf pantry in Faisalabad is running low just as demand rises; $400 will stock it for 7 weeks.

Since 2022, our volunteer team has run the Sunday Shelf every Monday from the back of a borrowed garage. We started with 9 families, and now we feed 325 each week.
Donations have dropped by about 55% 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 Faisalabad 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 $400 goes:
• Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $190
• Fresh vegetables and fruit: $55
• Baby formula and diapers: $90
• Refrigeration and electricity: $65
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Keep going, Hassan. Shared it with a few friends.
Hope things get better soon. Shared this with my family. Thinking of Faisalabad.
Hang in there, Hassan. Hope this works out for you.
take care, Hassan. Your post was clear and honest. My husband and I read this together. Blessings.
Wishing you the best. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Take care.
