Help Liliana keep the the Harvest Pantry pantry stocked
The the Harvest Pantry pantry in Alcalá de Henares is running low just as demand rises; $1,950 will stock it for 10 weeks.
Anywhere in the world1,107 views
Since 2019, our volunteer team has run the Harvest Pantry every Friday from the back of the parish hall. We started with 21 families, and now we feed 207 each week.
Donations have dropped by about 55% this harvest gap, 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 Alcalá de Henares market and keep every receipt.
Each $25 feeds a family of four for a week.
All of the funds go to groceries, fresh produce, and cold-storage costs.
Where the $1,950 goes:
• Fresh vegetables and fruit: $620
• Baby formula and diapers: $260
• Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $1,070
Thanks for being kind about this.

Wishing you the best, Liliana. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. Love from Lagos
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Liliana.
It's all in the list in the story. fresh vegetables and fruit is the big one at $620, I'll post a receipt when it's paid. Thanks, that means a lot.
Wishing you peace. Shared this with my family. God bless!
Hope things get better soon, Liliana. Shared this with my family. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Alcalá de Henares.
how is Liliana doing now?
Shared this with my family. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. All the best
Wishing you peace, Liliana. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. All the best.
Thanks for sharing this, Liliana. Shared this with my family. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of Alcalá de Henares.
Keep going, Liliana. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.
So sorry you're going through this, Liliana. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes

Best of luck. More neighborhoods should do this. Don't give up. God bless.
