Since 2022, our volunteer team has run Bread & Beans Kitchen every Sunday from the back of the mosque courtyard. We started with 11 families, and now we feed 229 each week. Donations have dropped by about 44% this school holidays, while the line has grown every single week. We rely on volunteers - 6 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Seville market and keep every receipt. Each $30 feeds a family of four for a week. All of the funds go to groceries, fresh produce, and cold-storage costs. Where the $1,200 goes: • Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $450 • Fresh vegetables and fruit: $450 • Baby formula and diapers: $220 • Refrigeration and electricity: $80 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
