The programme
What is Food ATM?
Food ATM is Rakhshanda Memorial’s flagship meal program addressing food insecurity among working-class communities in Islamabad. Daily wage workers, delivery riders, laborers, students, and security guards can access a fresh, hygienic meal for just Rs. 100.
Unlike conventional food programs, Food ATM uses a dignity-based model — beneficiaries contribute a small amount toward their meal rather than receiving it free. This promotes self-respect and discourages dependency. The remaining cost is covered by donors and sponsors.
The project follows a “No Profit – No Loss” philosophy where every contribution directly supports meal preparation and community outreach.
“A meal may last a few hours, but the dignity it preserves can last a lifetime.” Food ATM does not merely feed people — it empowers them.
