San Diego Food Not Bombs

FOOD NOT BOMBS
Food Not Bombs is an all volunteer non-profit organization. We are dedicated to providing free food to the hungry. Food Not Bombs has no formal leaders and strives to include everyone in its decision making process.

Each chapter recovers food and offers it to anyone without restriction. Society and government value material wealth over human lives, it tolerates the misery and dehumanization of some for the greater benefit of the few; many of the social problems we currently face are the results of values that privilege the forces of war and violence over human needs. In the face of this moral crisis, Food Not Bombs is committed to building a vital and caring movement for progressive social change and to challenging the invisible barrier that separates the poor and homeless from a so-called “normal” society. We also call attention to the failures of the society to support those within it while funding the forces of war and violence, including the police and border patrol.

We are associated and work with Food Not Bombs and take on Food Not Bombs’ basic principles of food recycling, non-violence, and consensus decision making.
