Weekly meals for families and seniors in El Paso
Annabelle runs a volunteer pantry feeding 108 families; this fund restocks shelves for the winter.

Since 2022, our volunteer team has run the Thursday Table every Friday from the back of a community center. We started with 23 families, and now we feed 108 each week.
Donations have dropped by about 43% 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 El Paso market and keep every receipt.
Each $55 feeds a family of four for a week.
All of the funds go to groceries, fresh produce, and cold-storage costs.
Where the $2,050 goes:
• Baby formula and diapers: $290
• Refrigeration and electricity: $230
• Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $1,530
Thanks for being kind about this.
- Annabelle

Sending strength, Annabelle. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. All the best
Sending good thoughts. Gave what I could, wish it was more. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of El Paso.
Keep going. Hope you get there. Sent it to 39 people at work.
