nourish
‘If a stranger comes and says, “I am hungry. Please give me food”, we must immediately give him food.’ (Mishnah Torah 6:6)
Jewish tradition explicitly commands us to feed the hungry.
Launched in March 2016, in partnership with the Father Bob Maguire Foundation, nourish is TBI’s initiative to feed the disadvantaged in our community.
Every Monday night nourish volunteers serve hot meals to those in need in our neighbourhood.
Meals are available from outside the TBI gates on Alma Road from 5.15pm until “sold out” (typically 6pm).
nourish is an ongoing project that continues to require volunteers and donations in order to operate. Volunteers are needed to drive the nourish van, cook, set up, serve food and clean up. Shifts are on Sundays and Mondays. If you would like to volunteer, or for more information, please contact us.
