We are a vegan/vegetarian movement, because this is a non-violent organization, and that act of non-violence extends out to all living beings.
We would prefer to use resources of food that would normally be thrown away. One of the ideas behind Food Not Bombs is that corporate and government priorities are skewed to allow hunger to persist in the midst of abundance. To bring attention to this (and to reduce costs), a large amount of the food served by the group is surplus food from grocery stores, bakeries and markets that would otherwise go to waste.
This is a weekly event (in addition to our regular weekly Monday evening food share). We plan on sharing coffee and pastries and other breakfast food such as tofu scramble, breakfast casseroles, and cereal. Sandwiches and bagged lunches will also be helpful, as many of our houseless community go until the evening without a meal at times. If you have any resources to procure some of these foods please let us know.
We are also in need of MENS clothing. Socks, shoes, belts are amongst things that are always asked for.
Hygeine products including pads/tampons are always in demand as well.
If you have nothing to offer, but make music..this is always a beautiful and welcome gift to the gathering
Come out and get involved in community activism ♥
