Since 2019, our volunteer team has run the Harvest Pantry every Saturday from the back of a community center. We started with 13 families, and now we feed 382 each week.
Donations have dropped by about 52% this harvest gap, while the line has grown every single week.
We rely on volunteers - 17 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Nagpur 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 $300 goes:
• Baby formula and diapers: $50
• Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $175
• Fresh vegetables and fruit: $75
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Best of luck. Shared this with my family. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Blessings
You're not alone, Nilesh. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We're a small family in Guadalajara but we're thinking of you. Greetings from Guadalajara.
