There is plenty of food for everyone in Germany, yet many people live in deprivation. The Tafel strive for a fairer balance, engaging volunteers for disadvantaged people in their area.

In 2012 more than 65,000 people applied for asylum. Over 800,000 applications are expected by the end of 2015.

The Tafel are there for all people who need help. In addition to the refugee camps, the Tafel are one of the first places in Germany that incoming refugees go to for assistance. To meet this challenge, we need more support.
