Founders of GNFKS

The Guru Nanak’s Free Kitchennete Sydney’s, concept was developed and executed on Guru Nanak’s Birthday on 28th of November, 2012, by a couple of Sydney- Mrs. Lucky Singh and Mr. Balbir Singh. Later  a group of like minded individuals got together who wanted to help with feeding those in need in Sydney and do so by encouraging youth and organizations to volunteer their time and services.

GNFK Sydney (Guru Nanak Free Kitchenette Sydney) is a multinational and multi-cultural charity organization that has streams of volunteers who joined hands from different ethnic backgrounds including Indians, Australians, Nepalese, Fiji Indians, Bangladeshi, SriLankans, Chinese and Muslims. It is the first ever initiative in the history of Indian Australian community to promote Australian diversity through a charity organization. This initiative promotes and introduces not only Indian food and clothes to homeless people but also the culture of giving with love as part of Sikh religious teachings-‘ Sarbat da Bhala' which means 'Do Good to all’.

GURU NANAK’S FREE KITCHENETTE SYDNEY (GNFKS) operates fortnightly and special programs during the year, serving hot vegetarian food, clothing, and other items to the homeless, needy and old aged residents of Sydney, Australia.

The practice of Langar – the communal kitchen and seva – the selfless service of humanity; philosophies taught by our first Guru, Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji many hundreds of years ago. For the Sikh community, this project is not missionary in nature, instead it is an opportunity for us to extend this true Sikh spirit of helping those in need regardless of caste, colour, creed, and economic status.
