The options as I can see them:

1) Get more money. (If we could, Andreas already would've.)

2) Re-allocate money from other expenses. (Read: tell some who're being
sponsored that they can't come, after all.)

3) Spend less money per person. (Read: Worse and less food for
everyone.)

4) Tell people who confirmed late that there might not be food for them,
sorry. (People will be angry.)

5) Ask people to give up free food. (I'm willing.)
