Since 2023, our volunteer team has run Neighbors' Pantry every Friday from the back of the mosque courtyard. We started with 8 families, and now we feed 151 each week. Donations have dropped by about 40% this school holidays, 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 Mohammedia 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 $700 goes: • Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $350 • Fresh vegetables and fruit: $170 • Baby formula and diapers: $95 • Refrigeration and electricity: $85 Thanks for being kind about this.

  • So sorry you're going through this, Emma. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.

      Take care. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Blessings!
