 Mission
"To establish massive free prasadam (sanctified food offered to
God) distribution programmes all over the world, so that all beings
are adequately nourished with Krishna prasadam, and there shall be no
unnecessary hunger anywhere."
What We Do
Hare Krishna devotees around the world bring much-needed
food relief to people suffering from wars, natural disasters, homelesnessness
and poverty. Our founder-acharya Srila Prabhupada instructed the devotees
that no-one should go hunrgry within a ten mile radius of our temples.
The food consists of pure vegetarian ingredients (grains,
dairy produce, vegetables and fruit, but no meat, fish or eggs) cooked
with love and offered to Krishna. This is known as Krishna-prasadam,
or the mercy of krishna. In this way, not only are peoples' bodies nourished;
prasadam also gives spiritual benefit, ultimately resulting in love of
Krishna and relief from the four material miseries (birth, disease, old
age and death).
Distribution in the UK is centred mainly in London from
specially adapted vans. The food is cooked at the Manor
and Soho St
temple kitchens. There is also Food for Life distribution in Belfast,
Birmingham,
Dublin, Newcastle
and West Wales.
Hare Krishna Food for All
