For many in Eastern Europe, putting a hot meal on the table each day is far from guaranteed—especially for vulnerable individuals earning low wages and elderly people surviving on meager pensions.

In this warm and welcoming space, they experience dignity, belonging, and the reassurance that they are valued and respected.
