About FFL.
"With roots in India, the Food for Life project is a modern day revival of the ancient Vedic culture of hospitality with its belief in the equality of all beings. It was conceived of and began by the International Society for Krishna Consciousness in 1974 and is thus commonly known as Hare Krishna Food for Life. It has been lauded by the New York Times and the International Rescue Committee (among others) for its relief efforts worldwide."
