About Food For Life Europe
1974
The roots of the Food for Life Global organization date back to 1974 in Mayapur, India. The founder Srila Prabhupada, witnessed village children fighting with street dogs over food scraps. Deeply moved, he instructed his students that "no one within a ten-mile radius of a centre no one should go hungry." This led to the creation of local "ISKCON Food Relief" programs worldwide.
Our Story 1995
As these local free food distribution programs grew into a massive decentralized network, Food for Life Global was founded in 1995 in USA. Food for Life operates in over 65 countries with more than 250 affiliate projects.
4 million free meals per day globally
Since the Food for Life movement's inception, together we have served over 8 billion free meals, making us the world’s largest plant-based food relief network. Food for Life Global, with its affiliates, distributes over 4 million plant-based meals every day through global network.
