Help Manisha keep the the Thursday Table pantry stocked
The the Thursday Table pantry in Mysuru is running low just as demand rises; $350 will stock it for 10 weeks.

Since 2023, our volunteer team has run the Thursday Table every Tuesday from the back of the mosque courtyard. We started with 22 families, and now we feed 137 each week.
Donations have dropped by about 33% this winter, while the line has grown every single week.
We rely on volunteers - 20 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Mysuru market and keep every receipt.
Each $5 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 $350 goes:
• Refrigeration and electricity: $30
• Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $260
• Baby formula and diapers: $60
Thanks for reading all this.
