Since 2022, our volunteer team has run the Sunday Shelf every Sunday from the back of the parish hall. We started with 12 families, and now we feed 366 each week.
Donations have dropped by about 39% this rainy season, while the line has grown every single week.
We rely on volunteers - 9 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Dnipro 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 $800 goes:
• Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $450
• Fresh vegetables and fruit: $230
• Baby formula and diapers: $120
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

Update from Dnipro: I met with the wholesaler and confirmed the amounts. We're at 5% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
