Since 2019, our volunteer team has run Neighbors' Pantry every Friday from the back of the parish hall. We started with 18 families, and now we feed 215 each week.
Donations have dropped by about 58% this winter, while the line has grown every single week.
We rely on volunteers - 19 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the New Delhi 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 $250 goes:
• Fresh vegetables and fruit: $80
• Refrigeration and electricity: $55
• Baby formula and diapers: $115
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

Keep going, Yogesh. Shared it with a few friends. I have a 15 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Greetings from Limoges!
Rooting for you. Projects like this are what make a place worth living in. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Thinking of New Delhi
