Hope Kitchen is a refugee women-led catering and food program co-founded by DFWROS Director Hiba Tanvir. A talented group of refugee women — bringing the rich culinary traditions of Afghanistan, Pakistan, and beyond — cook and sell authentic halal meals, turning their skills into real income and lasting careers.
What began as a small catering operation has grown into one of DFW's most beloved halal food programs. Every dish is cooked from scratch with the flavors of home — Kabuli Pulao, Chicken Karahi, Chapli Kabab, and more. The food speaks for itself.
Hope Kitchen is more than a meal program — it's an economic empowerment engine. These women build businesses, support their families, and show what's possible. Every order puts money directly in a refugee woman's hands.
Every item distributed at Hope Kitchen is halal-certified and carefully selected to meet the cultural and dietary needs of our diverse families.
Fresh, cooked halal meals prepared each Friday morning by our kitchen volunteers.
Seasonal vegetables, fruits, and herbs sourced through community food bank partnerships.
Rice, lentils, canned goods, cooking oil, flour, and other essential household food items.
Eggs, milk, yogurt, and halal-certified meat and poultry when available through donations.
Gluten-free, diabetic-friendly, and allergy-aware options available. Just ask our team.
Formula, baby food, and diapers available based on donations while supplies last.
Special Suhoor and Iftar packages distributed throughout the holy month each year.
Holiday meals, Eid treats, and community celebration packages for special occasions.
No appointment needed. All are welcome.
No paperwork required. You do not need to prove income or status.
Our 2026 goal is to serve 26,000 meals — one for every refugee family that walks through our doors at least once. With your support, we can get there.
Hope Kitchen runs entirely on the dedication of volunteers. Whether you love to cook, organize, or simply show up with a willing heart — there is a place for you here.
