Help Tommaso keep the Open Hands Pantry pantry stocked

Since 2021, our volunteer team has run Open Hands Pantry every Monday from the back of a borrowed garage. We started with 25 families, and now we feed 170 each week. Donations have dropped by about 32% this summer, while the line has grown every single week. We rely on volunteers - 6 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Brescia market and keep every receipt. Each $30 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 $1,500 goes: • Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $1,000 • Refrigeration and electricity: $180 • Baby formula and diapers: $320 Thanks for reading all this.
