Nurturing Communities Through Compassionate Initiatives
Driven by a deep sense of philanthropy, Ruby Walia is dedicated to touching human souls and making a difference in the community. Recognizing food as a basic necessity, she initiated Feed the Hungry in 2016, cooking fresh meals and providing them to over 100 homeless individuals monthly.
Touching Lives, Igniting Hope: Ruby Walia's Visionary Impact through Touch A Soul
Her commitment extended further with the establishment of Touch A Soul, a US-based nonprofit organization. Through Touch A Soul, Ruby sponsored hot meals for underprivileged school children daily and organized annual Backpack & Toy Drives across the Bay Area. Collaborating with like-minded nonprofits, such as Loaves and Fishes, Ruby continues to uplift and support those in need, leaving a lasting impact on countless lives.
If you can't feed a hundred people, then just feed one.
The war against hunger is truly mankind's war of liberation.
Loaves & Fishes
Founded in 1980, Loaves & Fishes is one of the largest non-profit prepared meal providers in Silicon Valley and the San Francisco Bay Area. We are the last line of defense for the most vulnerable among us. We provide complete, nutritious meals to anyone in Santa Clara and San Mateo counties who needs to know where their next meal will come from or who must choose between buying food and paying for other basic needs. Our guests are hungry and homeless families, children, low-income seniors, veterans, students, and disabled individuals. If you are hungry, we will feed you.
We have been fortunate to receive the generous and unwavering support of Ruby Walia, founder of Phool Patti, for over five years. Our first encounter with Ruby was through her charity organization, Touch A Soul, which not only provided funding for our efforts to feed children in schools but also saw her and her team come in as volunteers regularly to help us package, serve, and distribute hot meals to families, individuals and seniors who were hungry and homeless. The giving spirit of her program resulted in a donation of $30,000.00 to Loaves & Fishes, which provided approximately 10,000 meals to the communities we serve.
