The Quran has emphasized several times about feeding the needy. The Prophet PBUH said “Be the first to say Salam and feed the hungry”. TMF has embarked upon several unique projects to carry out this teaching.
TMF started its Mobile Dastarkhwan project in 2023. The project helped us reach different public hospitals across Lahore where we distributed food among needy patients and their attendants. Till date, the Mobile Dastarkhwan has provided over 20,000 meals to these hospitals.
Inspired by the Ottoman tradition, over 100 tandoors operate in 30 cities across Pakistan with weekly/monthly support from TMF volunteers. A tokri at each tandoor collects either donated rotis or funds. Over 4,000 free rotis are distributed daily, aiding ~1,500 families.
With the Naiki ka Ration project, we support 30 deserving families every month by providing them with essential rations. These include staples like flour, rice, pulses, oil, and other daily-use items to ensure food security for vulnerable households across Pakistan.
Under the Naiki ka Dastarkhwan project, we organize weekly community meals in 30 cities nationwide. Each Dastarkhwan serves hundreds of people, offering freshly cooked food in a dignified setting and fostering a sense of community among the underprivileged.
