Help Nida keep the the Sunday Shelf pantry stocked

Since 2020, our volunteer team has run the Sunday Shelf every Friday from the back of a school canteen. We started with 19 families, and now we feed 383 each week. Donations have dropped by about 55% this school holidays, while the line has grown every single week. We rely on volunteers - 13 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Rawalpindi 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 $200 goes: • Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $95 • Baby formula and diapers: $40 • Fresh vegetables and fruit: $65 Thank you for reading my story.
