Overview

Mission

Providing resources to communities in Philadelphia by providing groceries, clothing, hot meals, hygiene products, feminine products, gifts, coats, winter gear, senior essentials, menstrual health workshops, and more.

What it reported doing in 2025

Over the past year, Gentle Gratitude's Flow Freedom Initiative provided more than 1,500 girls across Pennsylvania, Texas, Delaware, New Jersey, Ohio, Georgia, Florida, Illinois, and Washington, D.C. with a three-month supply of menstrual hygiene products. The program reached young women across 78 ZIP codes, expanding access to essential period products for individuals experiencing financial barriers. Through Flow Freedom, Gentle Gratitude continues to promote menstrual equity, dignity, confidence, and consistent access to products that support girls' health, education, and participation in daily life.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 96% 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 program spending has grown recently. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
