Help Inna keep the Neighbors' Pantry pantry stocked

The Neighbors' Pantry pantry in Lviv is running low just as demand rises; $350 will stock it for 6 weeks.

Since 2021, our volunteer team has run Neighbors' Pantry every Thursday from the back of the mosque courtyard. We started with 30 families, and now we feed 90 each week. Donations have dropped by about 59% this school holidays, while the line has grown every single week. We rely on volunteers - 8 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Lviv market and keep every receipt. Each $10 feeds a family of four for a week. All of the funds go to groceries, fresh produce, and cold-storage costs. Where the $350 goes: • Refrigeration and electricity: $50 • Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $190 • Baby formula and diapers: $110 I hope life is good to you. - Inna

Updates from Inna

  1. Update from Lviv: we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. We're at 27% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.

  2. Good news. Because of your gifts ($65 in total) I made the first payment toward refrigeration and electricity. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
