The joy of giving
We, at ISKCON BCEC, understand that apart from a person's body craving for satisfaction of the stomach, the satisfaction of the person occupying that body is also of primary importance. We believe in solving this eternal craving of the soul by being a part of the World's Largest vegetarian Non-Profit Food Relief program called the Hare Krishna Food-for-Life.
About the program
Situated in the suburbs of Pimpri-Chinchwad City, ISKCON BCEC is a project of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON) and is located at Vishal Nagar, Pune.

Our work
What we do, how we do, where we do
ISKCON works towards its mission through various cultural and spiritual educational programs to benefit society.
Our Initiatives
Food for Life: This program is the world's largest vegetarian food relief initiative, distributing millions of meals daily across more than 60 countries. In India, Food for Life has been particularly impactful, providing meals to school children and disaster-affected populations.
Midday Meal Scheme (Annamrita): Launched in collaboration with the Indian government, this initiative provides nutritious meals to over 1.2 million children in government and government-aided schools across India. It aims to enhance school attendance and educational outcomes by addressing child hunger.
