Hannover

Since 2020, our volunteer team has run Community Pantry every Tuesday from the back of a community center. We started with 23 families, and now we feed 187 each week. Donations have dropped by about 38% this winter, while the line has grown every single week. We rely on volunteers - 12 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Hannover 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 $2,650 goes: • Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $1,150 • Fresh vegetables and fruit: $1,150 • Baby formula and diapers: $240 • Refrigeration and electricity: $110 Thanks for reading all this. - Johanna
