Kumasi
Since 2019, our volunteer team has run the Sunday Shelf every Monday from the back of a community center. We started with 20 families, and now we feed 118 each week. Donations have dropped by about 50% this winter, 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 Kumasi 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 $350 goes: • Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $190 • Refrigeration and electricity: $45 • Fresh vegetables and fruit: $115 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.
