Since 2019, our volunteer team has run the Sunday Shelf every Tuesday from the back of a borrowed garage. We started with 16 families, and now we feed 276 each week. Donations have dropped by about 58% this winter, while the line has grown every single week. We rely on volunteers - 10 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Granada market and keep every receipt. Each $30 feeds a family of four for a week. All of the funds go to groceries, fresh produce, and cold-storage costs. Where the $2,250 goes: • Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $1,300 • Fresh vegetables and fruit: $540 • Baby formula and diapers: $350 • Refrigeration and electricity: $60 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

  • Sending love, Daniela. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't give up. Take care.

    • hang in there. This could happen to any of us. Put this on a community board in Anaheim this morning

      • Wishing you peace. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Wish I lived closer to Narayanganj so I could bring a meal

        • Good luck. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. God bless.
