Bringing warmth, care and nutritious meals to people in need across Malta.
Marta’s Kitchen (Kċina ta’ Marta) is a community initiative run by LOOP Djakonija Parroċċi in partnership with the Alfred Mizzi Foundation. Working alongside parishes across Malta, the kitchen prepares nutritious meals for individuals and families facing difficult circumstances, ensuring that those in need have access to food and compassionate community support.
The initiative grew from Solidarity Meals, a project launched during the COVID pandemic to deliver warm meals to people who could not cook for themselves. Today, Marta’s Kitchen continues this spirit of generosity, bringing together volunteers, local parishes and supporters to care for people in their communities.
Beyond preparing meals, the initiative also brings people together through its community dining space in Ħal Balzan, creating opportunities for connection and companionship.
Every day, Marta’s Kitchen brings people together and supports local communities in the following ways:
01
Preparing nutritious meals and delivering food assistance to individuals and families facing difficult circumstances, ensuring they receive the care and support they need.
02
Working closely with parishes, community organisations and volunteers across Malta to reach people in need and provide essential food assistance.
03
Creating welcoming spaces where people can share meals, build friendships and enjoy a sense of connection and belonging through community dining.
Creating a community where everyone facing hardship can access nutritious food and receive support with kindness, care and respect.
Building a culture of solidarity where parishes, volunteers and local supporters work together to care for people in need.
Encouraging meaningful connections through shared meals and welcoming spaces where people feel valued, included and less alone.
Supporting a future where food assistance goes hand in hand with compassion, personal empowerment and long term community wellbeing.
