Peace Meal

Peace Meal has continuously served lunch once a month since April 2005 at First United Church, 320 East Hastings Street, Vancouver. Ahavat Olam has been a proud participant in, and partner of, the program since its inception.

Having started as a collaboration between Muslims and Jews wanting to work together on a social justice project, this program has evolved over the years. The focus today is on bringing diverse communities together to help those in need in Vancouver’s downtown east side.

Peace Meal is a 100% volunteer-run, interfaith, inter-cultural group with the same goal of coming together to build a community of support to help those in need in Vancouver’s downtown east side. You can register for a volunteer shift at eventbrite  (type “Peace Meal” into the search for events mechanism).
