Help Konstantin keep the Bread & Beans Kitchen pantry stocked
The Bread & Beans Kitchen pantry in Saint Petersburg is running low just as demand rises; $1,100 will stock it for 10 weeks.

Since 2023, our volunteer team has run Bread & Beans Kitchen every Tuesday from the back of a borrowed garage. We started with 20 families, and now we feed 225 each week.
Donations have dropped by about 50% 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 Saint Petersburg market and keep every receipt.
Each $15 feeds a family of four for a week.
All of the funds go to groceries, fresh produce, and cold-storage costs.
Where the $1,100 goes:
• Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $700
• Fresh vegetables and fruit: $190
• Baby formula and diapers: $90
• Refrigeration and electricity: $120
