Help Petros keep the the Sunday Shelf pantry stocked
Help keep a free food pantry open for elderly neighbors in Thessaloniki.
🇬🇷 Thessaloniki, Central Macedonia, Greece764 views
Since 2020, our volunteer team has run the Sunday Shelf every Sunday from the back of a community center. We started with 9 families, and now we feed 141 each week.
Donations have dropped by about 49% this rainy season, while the line has grown every single week.
We rely on volunteers - 15 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Thessaloniki 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 $1,450 goes:
• Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $780
• Fresh vegetables and fruit: $480
• Baby formula and diapers: $115
• Refrigeration and electricity: $75
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

best of luck. Projects like this are what make a place worth living in. Put this on a community board in Coventry this morning. All the best
Stay strong, Petros. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I hope March is when things finally get easier.
How is Petros doing now?
Wishing you peace, Petros. Hope you get there. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. God bless
can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Thessaloniki
Thank you. If you're in Thessaloniki I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Fair thing to want to know.
keep going. Looking forward to the next update.
Stay strong, Petros. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did
Thinking of you. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We're a small family in Envigado but we're thinking of you.
Keep going, Petros. Looking forward to the next update.
Hope things get better soon. Projects like this are what make a place worth living in. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Thinking of Thessaloniki
