Overview
Mission
Got Lunch Laconia is a community based effort created to address the food insecurity of Laconia's children who receive free and reduced school lunch during the school year. Our mission is to address this need by delivering healthy groceries directly to children's homes during the 10 months of summer. We serve approxately 550 children and 240 families. We also provide limited grocery vouchers during the holiday season.
What it reported doing in 2025
Got Lunch Laconia provided food for lunches each week during the 10 weeks of summer. We also provided food vouchers during the holiday season for $8,000 to families and gift cards to local restaurants for families in the amount of $10,000.
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 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
STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Revenue has declined or grown slowly and expenses are high relative to revenue.
