Since 2022, our volunteer team has run Bread & Beans Kitchen every Sunday from the back of a community center. We started with 20 families, and now we feed 119 each week.
Donations have dropped by about 46% this rainy season, while the line has grown every single week.
We rely on volunteers - 8 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Pune 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 $450 goes:
• Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $135
• Fresh vegetables and fruit: $220
• Baby formula and diapers: $95
Thank you so much.

Hope it all works out, Rohit. I hope things turn around soon. Put this on a community board in Dallas this morning. Greetings from Dallas
Thinking of you, Rohit. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't give up. Love from Calgary.
