FREE SCHOOL MEALS
We don't want to see any child go hungry, therefore we are pledging unlimited vegetarian meals within our local community. #ENDCHILDFOODPOVERTY #freeschoolmeals #marcusrashford
Story
"These children matter. These children are the future of this country. They are not just another statistic. And for as long as they dont have a voice, they will have mine. You have my word on that." - Marcus Rashford
A little bit about NishkamSWAT
NishkamSWAT is a 100% voluntary humanitarian-aid organisation founded in 2008 that look after the immediate needs of the street homeless. We serve at least 5000 meals a week in 24 locations in the UK, and 2 locations internationally, 32 times a week based on the concept of Langar (Free Community Kitchen) through our faith-based values of love, truth, compassion, forgiveness, contentment and humility. One outreach location in particular, Trafalgar Square in London sees at least 350 meals being served on some nights, 5 times a week. During these unprecedented times in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have seen an increase in service users which has increased the amount of food, refreshments, clothing, and blankets/sleeping bags we serve.
