Overview
Mission
Our mission is to provide, with dignity, hot meals to those in need in an effort to end food insecurity in our communities.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Other-operating. 65% of the money available for current operations came from other operating revenue.
- Distribution model
- Grant intermediary. The nonprofit sent 100% of its reported program spending out as grants.
- Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.
The verdict
MIXED - Most voting board members are independent and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filing does not identify recipients for some grant dollars.
