Weekly meals for families and seniors in Aurangabad

🇮🇳 Aurangabad, Maharashtra, India544 views
Since 2023, our volunteer team has run the Second Helping every Thursday from the back of a community center. We started with 18 families, and now we feed 201 each week.
Donations have dropped by about 45% this harvest gap, while the line has grown every single week.
We rely on volunteers - 7 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Aurangabad market and keep every receipt.
Each $10 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 $500 goes:
• Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $260
• Fresh vegetables and fruit: $85
• Baby formula and diapers: $80
• Refrigeration and electricity: $75
I hope life is good to you.
