32 chicken should be enough
gives you 128 quarters and a quarter should be able to serve 2 people when cut up for curry which gives you 256 servings
for extra you can go up to 40 chicken as when cooking in large quantities sometimes the chicken is over cooked and falls apart and you will need to serve a little extra
2 sacks potato and 1/2 sack channa sounds about right
cook them together to stretch the servings
between 20 to 30 pumkin depending on the size but usually a serving is just a spoonfull so 20 mediaum may be sufficient
mango can be cut into 6 peices so at 250 boxes leaves you with around 42 mangoes but 50 should be enough as a serving would be a 1 piece mango/seed and sauce
suggest re checking thes figures with a few different caterers to get a final figure
keep in mind its a fund raiser and not a dinner so servings sizes need to be rationed but at the same time not too little
