MISSION, VISION VALUES Co-founded in 2012, FoodBlessed is a pioneering hunger-relief AND food-rescue youth-led non-profit organization that seeks to provide an effective and efficient solution to hunger, while addressing the serious and growing problem of food waste in Lebanon, one meal at a time. FoodBlessed is the only community-based and volunteer-driven organization in Lebanon and the region that works with the civil society and strategic partners to reduce the number of people going hungry in Lebanon, while making sure no good food goes to waste. FoodBlessed is a non-religious and non-partisan humanitarian organization. MISSION - To unite and nourish communities across Lebanon through the power of food, social responsibility and volunteerism. VISION - Create a community which works towards making sure that the food insecure, hungry and homeless don't end up sleeping on an empty belly or feeling ostracized; that good food, which is usually wasted, doesn't end up in bins but rather in bellies; and that community members are given the opportunity to better serve their communities. VALUES - FoodBlessed firmly believes that food is a vital tool to supporting local communities, bringing people together and connecting us as human beings. That is why in addition to feeding empty bellies, they also use food to build communities, tackle loneliness and provide spaces for people from different backgrounds and walks of life to meet, share, and to make friends. That's why: -We put people at the heart of what we do. -We are inclusive and welcome everyone. By using inclusive language, we demonstrate respect in both our workplaces and in developing and delivering policies, programs, and services for people in need across Lebanon regardless of their sexual orientation and gender identity, because at the end of the day we're all human beings and we deserve to be acknowledged for being just, above anything else. -We stimulate discussions; we create connections; we build communities. -We establish long-term and rewarding relationships with our guests, our volunteers, our partners, our suppliers, our supporters and our volunteers. -We make use of resources that already exist. -We work on rebuilding the dignity of those in need and restoring their confidence in their community. Instead of lining up for food, like in most soup kitchens, our guests are invited to sit down at our table where they are served their food by our Hunger Heroes. -We nurture our planet; we collect surplus food; we use spare local kitchens; we support communities to access available resources. We're innovative with what already exists and always look to tread gently on our planet. -We have adopted a zero-tolerance approach against any type of discrimination or harassment that is based not just on gender identity and sexual orientation but also on age, religion, colour, ethnicity, nationality etcetera. At FoodBlessed, when we talk about gender, sex characteristics or sexuality, we're not talking about preferences or choices. We're just talking about how people are. -We do it with love. Whether it is a meal cooked and served or a food parcel packed and delivered, it is always done with love. FoodBlessed's number one rule is "what is done with love is done well, so do it with love". Indeed, FoodBlessed believes in the power of communal eating and community solidarity in rebuilding the dignity of those in need and restoring their confidence in their community.
