Help keep a free food pantry open for neighbors in need in Thrissur.

Since 2019, our volunteer team has run the Second Helping every Tuesday from the back of a borrowed garage. We started with 10 families, and now we feed 255 each week.
Donations have dropped by about 59% this harvest gap, while the line has grown every single week.
We rely on volunteers - 18 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Thrissur market and keep every receipt.
Each $10 feeds a family of four for a week.
I'll post the weekly shopping receipts and a photo of the shelves each Sunday.
Where the $350 goes:
• Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $200
• Fresh vegetables and fruit: $70
• Baby formula and diapers: $60
• Refrigeration and electricity: $20
Thank you for reading my story.
