Sukkur

Since 2021, our volunteer team has run Neighbors' Pantry every Friday from the back of a borrowed garage. We started with 30 families, and now we feed 70 each week. Donations have dropped by about 49% this winter, while the line has grown every single week. We rely on volunteers - 17 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Sukkur 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 $250 goes: • Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $180 • Refrigeration and electricity: $25 • Baby formula and diapers: $45 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Take care. Shared this with my family. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Seville.

Projects like this are what make a place worth living in. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double

Sending good thoughts, Qasim. This could happen to any of us. I went through something like this 8 years ago and strangers helped me out.
