How close should a Naan Drive bakery be to a household?
The bakery should be practical for the household to reach because distance, transport cost, mobility, weather, and safety affect whether a daily benefit is usable.
What this means in practice
“Neighborhood bakery” should describe actual access, not merely the nearest willing vendor on a map.
Field coordinators can learn about barriers after collection begins.
A program should adapt when repeated travel consumes too much of the value being provided.
How the Naan Drive keeps the promise concrete
The current Famidi model connects a participating household with a neighborhood bakery for seven fresh naans per day over 30 days. The card, bakery relationship, handoff, and field follow-up are parts of one program record.
Prices, bakery participation, household needs, and operating details can change. The current program and donation pages are the source of truth for what a new gift supports.
Check the underlying information.
