Background on the Food for Life Project:

The distribution of sanctified plantbased meals has been and will continue to be an essential part of India's Vedic culture of hospitality from which Food for Life was born.

Since its inception in the early 70’s, Food for Life has tried to liberally distribute pure plantbased meals (prasadam) throughout the world with the aim of creating peace and prosperity. The Food for Life Global office, directed by Paul Turner, facilitates the expansion, co-ordination and promotion of prasadam distribution throughout the world.

Details:

FOOD FOR LIFE is a nonprofit organization, bringing food and life to the needy of the world through the liberal distribution of pure food prepared with love. The project started in 1974 and today Food for Life is active in over 60 countries worldwide.

Over 1,500,000 meals daily!

With volunteers serving more than 1,500,000 free plantbased meals daily from free food restaurants, mobile kitchens, to schools and to disaster areas, FOOD FOR LIFE is the largest vegan food relief in the world.

Community Based

Food for Life Global's volunteers are made up of the socially conscious public. Food for Life Global is a non-sectarian organization. Everyone is welcome to participate in our community projects.
