FOOD FOR LIFE
ISKCON Sankhari: Food For Life Program
The Food for Life program at ISKCON Sankhari is a divine initiative to provide nutritious, sanctified vegetarian meals to those in need while spreading the message of compassion and Krishna consciousness. Founded on the principle that "no one within a ten-mile radius of a temple should go hungry," we serve food with love and devotion.
"Food offered with love and devotion becomes spiritual and nourishes both the body and soul." - Bhagavad-gita
About the Food For Life Program:
Food for Life is the world's largest vegetarian food relief program, founded by ISKCON in 1974. At ISKCON Sankhari, we:
- Serve hot, nutritious meals daily to underprivileged communities
- Provide emergency food relief during disasters
- Conduct regular food distribution programs in schools and orphanages
- Organize mass feeding events during festivals
- Distribute food packets to homeless and elderly people
Spiritual and Physical Nourishment
Unlike ordinary food distribution, our program offers prasadam - sanctified vegetarian food first offered to Lord Krishna with love and devotion. This food:
- Purifies the consciousness of those who eat it
- Provides complete nutrition for body and mind
- Helps reduce sinful reactions and karmic burdens
- Creates spiritual awakening and peace of mind
- Fosters gratitude and compassion in society
Program Highlights:
- Daily Meal Service: Serving hundreds of meals every day
- School Lunch Program: Providing nutritious meals to school children
- Elderly Care: Regular food distribution to senior citizens
- Festival Feasts: Large-scale food distribution during major festivals
- Disaster Relief: Emergency food service during crises
- Nutrition Education: Teaching the benefits of vegetarianism
Our Mission
Our mission is to eliminate hunger and malnutrition while simultaneously nourishing the soul through the distribution of prasadam (sanctified food). We believe that by satisfying hunger with spiritual food, we can help create a more peaceful and compassionate society.
