Shabnam Vafaee & Peter Sharokhi's Dream of helping people

PORTER RANCH, Calif. - EntSun -- Shabnam RahbarVafaee  and Pedram Sharokhi were inspired to take action after witnessing the growing number of individuals and families struggling to access basic necessities in her own community. Motivated by the conviction that food is a fundamental human right, Shabnam rallied local residents to join her in preparing and distributing meals. What began as a small neighborhood effort has since grown into a nationwide movement, uniting people from diverse backgrounds in the fight against hunger.
"Our work is about more than just providing food," said Shabnam Rahbar Vafaee, founder of the initiative. "We believe that everyone deserves to be treated with respect, regardless of their circumstances. A meal is not just nourishment—it's a message that you are seen, valued, and not alone."
She convinced her husband, Pedram Sharokhi to take initiative in starting this charitable event.
