Overview

Mission

By drawing on varied resources within public agencies and the private sector, we hope to provide hunger relief for those in need throughout Indiana.

What it reported doing in 2024

Hoosier Hogs to Homes, formerly named Million Meals, is a partnership with the Indiana Pork Producers supported 100% by contributions. Indiana Pork markets the program to its members and allied industries. Feeding Indiana's Hungry accepts and processes financial donations, purchases pork for processing, and arranges transportation to food banks. The pounds distributed are based on a formula that considers unemployment and poverty on a county by county basis. This program income and expenses are held in a separate account and are usually spent down annually.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 95% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Grant intermediary. The nonprofit sent 85% 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.
