Overview

Mission

The Dubuque Areas Labor Harvest operates as a Food Pantry. We supply free food and free breakfasts to citizens in need in Dubuque County

What it reported doing in 2024

Dubuque Areas Labor Harvest holds one food giveaway on the second Saturday of every month. And since the beginning of the COVID Pandemic, in addition to the food giveaways, we make grocery deliveries to shut ins and others that couldn't get out of their homes to get food. In 2024 we distributed 3,777 boxes of food for the food giveaways. And we delivered 2 boxes of food to over 123 families during 2024.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 86% 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. Program spending has declined or grown slowly and expenses are high relative to revenue.
