$1,027,468 has been sent to the World Food Programme since we opened subscriptions. Every dollar of it appears in a monthly receipt with a confirmation reference.
The $8 line is fixed.
Not “up to $8”. Not profit-contingent. Whether we made a margin this month or lost it, the transfer to WFP clears.
How the sausage is made.
- 01
You subscribe.
Stripe charges $20. $8 is earmarked in a separate ledger the moment the charge clears. No hold, no averaging, no promise-based accounting.
- 02
We batch monthly.
On the last calendar day of the month, we sum the earmarked amount across every active subscription and send a single donation to WFP via ShareTheMeal at $0.80/meal.
- 03
WFP sends a receipt.
ShareTheMeal returns a confirmation with a reference number. We publish it — date, amount, meal count, reference — the same day the transfer clears.
- 04
You see it in your ledger.
Your personal My Table screen breaks down which of the month's meals your subscription funded, at plate resolution.
- 05
If we ever can't show the receipt, cancel us.
That is the whole trust mechanism. There is no back-office estimate, no 'as of' number, no forward-looking commitment. Only receipts.
Receipts, not testimonials.

The ledger.
Where the money lands.
We donate to the UN World Food Programme via ShareTheMeal, their per-meal donation platform. WFP has the operational scale to spend the money on food quickly — no unspent-reserve build-up, no capacity constraints at our donation size.

Every subscriber has their own personal ledger — the plates their subscription has funded, tied to the same monthly reference numbers you see above.
Questions worth answering.
Email ShareTheMeal's donor support (donations@sharethemeal.org) with the reference number from any row on the ledger. They confirm the amount, meal count, and date associated with it. No LADLE authorization needed. We publish reference numbers precisely so anyone can do this without asking us.
