Overview
Mission
The Bloomington Food Policy Council is a group of community members committed to building food security by assessing the current food system, advocating policy changes to improve it, and educating the public on concrete steps we can all take to assure everyone access to affordable and nutritious foods, with an emphasis on food produced sustainably by local farmers and gardeners.
What it reported doing in 2023
$31,939 was spent on locally grown food from 20 farmers, providing an estimated 3,834 meals to the community while supporting local agriculture.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
- Distribution model
- Grant intermediary. The nonprofit sent 100% of its reported program spending out as grants.
The verdict
STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown and expenses are high relative to revenue.
