Overview

Mission

To help care for the needy in Union County Arkansas

What it reported doing in 2025

This year groceries were provided close to 3,000 times to approximately 1,000 households. The households had about 2,600 members with 28% being children and 21% being senior citizens. Forty-eight clients got dental assistance. Utility assistance was given out 493 times.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Grant intermediary. The nonprofit sent 100% 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 and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
