Pasig
Since 2020, our volunteer team has run the Sunday Shelf every Friday from the back of a community center. We started with 8 families, and now we feed 358 each week. Donations have dropped by about 41% this school holidays, while the line has grown every single week. We rely on volunteers - 14 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Pasig 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 $500 goes: • Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $200 • Fresh vegetables and fruit: $130 • Baby formula and diapers: $115 • Refrigeration and electricity: $55 Thanks for being kind about this. - Joyce
