Sunshine and myself had been wanting to do a local feeding program for over a year, we were inspired by Ned over at MyPhilippineDreams who did something very similar a few years back.
With just P1,900 invested in the program we were able to feed over 30 of the neediest people in Sunshine's community
Deciding what food you're going to serve
We'd discussed Pancit, Spaghetti, Rice Porridge and a few other choices. Pancit and Rice Porridge were the least expensive food choices to buy and cook in bulk but we decided for our first try we'd serve the always popular Spaghetti. Many of the children we fed have never tasted good quality Filipino Style Spaghetti so this would be a real treat for them.
Shopping!!!
1 Large pack of Big Shot Hot dogs
1 Large can of Corned Beef
2 packs of Eden Cheese
3 packs of Styrofoam Contains
and a few unlisted expenses
Cooking the Food
Cooking in bulk brings its own challenges but Sunshine and her mom worked hard to make sure everything turned out perfect.
Packing and Distribution
We made sure that all 30 containers were filled with large portions as some of them would be taken home to feed more than one person
Distribution
Just a few people getting their food, some people got more containers based on the size of the family
She has a bag full of yummy spaghetti that will surely put many smiles on peoples faces :) Thanks for your help.
Helping people who really need help makes you feel good inside knowing that someone won't be going to bed hungry was worth all the challenges, we plan to do more in the future switching up the menu every once in awhile. Sunshine and I hope this inspires you to help as many people as you can every little bit helps
Thanks for Reading
