Food Expenditures

Yesterday, Pamela, Vasundhra, and Shilpa went to go purchase the food that we'll be giving out later today.

Here is the breakup of their costs:

  1. Rice, 2kg: Rs 39
  2. Toor Dhal, 1/2kg: Rs 26

The total is Rs 65 (USD 1.30). We've bought one hundred sets of this to feed one hundred families, coming to a total of Rs 6,500 (USD 130). 2 kilograms of rice, however, will only be sufficient for about 2-3 days, depending on the size of the family.

If the rains last, this activity may need to be repeated to ensure that the people at Ramavaram will have enough to eat.

If you would be willing to sponsor this food for even a few houses, please contact us. It would make a big difference!
