Overview

Mission

Angels of action plan to ensure that no elementary school child (k-5) on the free or reduced lunch program in mecosta county goes hungry on weekends during the school year by supplying backpacks (backpack blessings) filled with enough nutritious food to sustain the child for that duration. We understand and believe there is a direct link between sound nutrition intake and the ability to absorb and retain information that results in positive school performance and a healthy sense of well-being.

What it reported doing in 2024

To provide nutritious food to elementary children on the weekends who are on the free or reduced lunch program.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 65% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
