Since 2023, our volunteer team has run Neighbors' Pantry every Saturday from the back of a borrowed garage. We started with 28 families, and now we feed 178 each week. Donations have dropped by about 44% this school holidays, while the line has grown every single week. We rely on volunteers - 7 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Bekasi 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): $130 • Fresh vegetables and fruit: $125 • Baby formula and diapers: $110 • Refrigeration and electricity: $35 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Lia

  • Stay strong. Projects like this are what make a place worth living in. Wish I lived closer to Nairobi so I could bring a meal. Love from Savannah

    • Wishing you the best, Lia. Looking forward to the next update. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. All the best
