Have you heard of the Robin Hood Army?? Well, this is a group of people who came together with the objective of providing food to the needy on a regular basis... yes, it is not a one off event, or a campaign, but it is an endeavour to make sure people get food ..
The Robin Hood Army is a registered NGO, but it doesn't function like one -- it's a volunteer-driven body that's decentralised. Every city has its local chapters, and people and restaurants in each area feed the homeless in their neighbourhood
