Help Margaux keep the the Thursday Table pantry stocked
The the Thursday Table pantry in Saint-Étienne is running low just as demand rises; $2,350 will stock it for 7 weeks.
🇫🇷 France2,508 views
Since 2021, our volunteer team has run the Thursday Table every Wednesday from the back of the old library basement. We started with 26 families, and now we feed 102 each week.
Donations have dropped by about 55% this winter, while the line has grown every single week.
We rely on volunteers - 9 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Saint-Étienne market and keep every receipt.
Each $20 feeds a family of four for a week.
All of the funds go to groceries, fresh produce, and cold-storage costs.
Where the $2,350 goes:
• Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $1,100
• Fresh vegetables and fruit: $610
• Baby formula and diapers: $310
• Refrigeration and electricity: $330
Every share and every dollar helps.

Best of luck, Margaux. Projects like this are what make a place worth living in. My neighbor in Abuja donated after I showed her your page. All the best
Stay strong, Margaux. Hope you get there. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
Sending good thoughts, Margaux. Great idea, hope you get there. Love from Savannah
