Since 2019, our volunteer team has run the Sunday Shelf every Friday from the back of a community center. We started with 27 families, and now we feed 221 each week. Donations have dropped by about 46% this summer, while the line has grown every single week. We rely on volunteers - 6 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Mumbai 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 $300 goes: • Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $210 • Fresh vegetables and fruit: $65 • Refrigeration and electricity: $25 Thank you so much. - Neelam
