Food for Life — The Charitable Foundation

The Food for Life Charitable Foundation is a non-profit non-governmental organization which aims to provide every possible help to the poor and people in need.
"To serve others and to do good" — this Aristotle's instruction is being fully implemented by our team and all those who help us, as it completely captures the essence of the Foundation's philosophy.

Hearts and doors of the Foundation are always open to all those who suffer and to those who want to help others. It has been noticed before that when good people get together, it is easier to help, and it's more fun and effective too. If you want to participate in events the Foundation holds, it's very easy to join us. You can find more on ways to help on "What you can do" page.

With respect and gratitude,
the President of the Food for life Charitable Foundation

History of the “Food for Life” foundation

 It all began back in 1972, when A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, the founder-acharya of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness, saw children who had to fight with street dogs over scraps of food to maintain their lives. He sad: “Look how hungry they are. God is our father. Where there is a father, children should not starve. No one within ten miles of our temples should go hungry”.

In 1974 the International Society for Krishna Consciousness organized a special program for serving free meals, that soon became the Charitable Foundation “Food for Life”.                                               

This foundation is known for its selfless volunteers, who work even in the hottest spots of our planet. They were among the first to respond to earthquakes in Spitak (Armenia), Neftegorsk, West Bengal and Sakhalin. They also provided food in war zones in Sukhumi, Chechnya, Ingushetia and Yugoslavia.

This is how a devout wish to help others finds strength and power in service to people in need. Why? Because at heart every person has a sincere desire to help others in difficult times. The charitable foundation “Food for Life” has been helping successfully for many years. Nowadays “Food for life” is a global network of local charitable organizations. And it is a good evidence of effectiveness and sincerity of our work.

History of the “Food for Life” foundation in Ukraine

In Ukraine the charitable foundation “Food for Life” began its activities in Kiev in 1993. The initiative was immediately supported by local authorities, they provided entire dining room at 29 Turov street for the free use of the foundation. From 2000 to 2008 the dining room has moved to 2 Novomostitskaya street.

Since our founding in Ukraine, more than 30 centers were opened to distribute free food and more than 1.5 million of free vegetarian meals were served. The largest centers are in Kiev, Dnepropetrovsk and Simferopol.

In Kiev we deliver hot meals to poor people on a minibus every week and also regularly conduct annual charitable events.

President of the “Food for Life” branch in Kiev

   We live in a time full of surprises. Life constantly brings us gifts; some are pleasant and some are not. Anyway, life is changeable and even if you are lucky today, things could change beyond recognition tomorrow...

One thing is obvious: what goes around, comes around. Therefore, if money comes to you and you help people, who have hard times, by this you not only bring a positive balance in value system ​​of human society, but care about your future as well. Because sooner or later everyone will have difficult situations in life; as a rule, only someone’s selfless service and support help to overcome hard times. That is why in deepest gratitude I bow to all those, who help disadvantaged people.

May good luck always accompany all your noble deeds.

Sincerely, President of the Foundation “Food for Life”, Nikolay Sahno

Philosophy of the Food for Life foundation

The Food for Life foundation aims not only at charitable distribution of food and hot meals, but primarily at resisting certain violent tendencies that exist in today’s society. An old man or a child with a plate of porridge receives something that is very rare these days — care, love and compassion…
