Since 2019, our volunteer team has run Community Pantry every Friday from the back of a school canteen. We started with 12 families, and now we feed 114 each week.
Donations have dropped by about 58% this harvest gap, while the line has grown every single week.
We rely on volunteers - 17 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Hubballi market and keep every receipt.
Each $10 feeds a family of four for a week.
All of the funds go to groceries, fresh produce, and cold-storage costs.
Where the $400 goes:
• Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $230
• Fresh vegetables and fruit: $130
• Baby formula and diapers: $35
• Refrigeration and electricity: $5
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
