Overview

Mission

Mission Statement: Called to the work of social justice and equity, we provide a welcoming community and share access to life-supporting resources with our Central New York neighbors.

What it reported doing in 2024

While ICC received its 501(c)(3) approval in March 2025 it began receiving donations and paying a few startup expenses, the majority of expenses and salary continued to be paid by the previous organizing organization, University United Methodist Church. At the beginning of the new fiscal year, October 1, 2025, all expenses, including personnel are through ICC. Because of this, for ICC, the program dollar amounts are $0. Complete budget for 2025-2026 is $140,000. ICC Friday Food Distribution begins on Thursday when 300 large boxes (mostly banana boxes) are filled with shelf stable foods, much or which comes from the Central New York Food Bank. On Friday, the Food Bank delivers (on average) about a ton of grocery rescue foods and these are sorted, and along with other perishable items are added the boxes. Cars begin to arrive at 8 am for the 10 am food distribution and there is a separate line for walkers. It is all over by 11:30. The 300 cars represent about 1,000 people getting 4 days of food. Total food distribution for the year is around 300,000 pounds.

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

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and most voting board members are independent. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
