Overview

Mission

Community-based public-benefit food-related activities

What it reported doing in 2014

Supplemental support provided for 130 of the communitys children. Remaining resources transitioned to Seaside Food 4 Kids due to closing of local school and plans for a charter school in Cannon Beach still a couple of years away.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 83% 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

MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
