Overview
Mission
Jesus food is a non-profit organization whose mission is to provide a fully nutritious meal everyday to starving children of all ages around the world. We also believe that by bringing them into a relationship with jesus christ, and connecting to a local church and mission based organization that will include education, we will not just feed them, but transform their lives forever. A free gift for you...have you received god's gift of salvation? The bible tells us in john 1:12, "as many as received him, he gives us the right to become the children of god." also in romans 10:9-13, for "everyone who calls on the name of the lord will be saved." pray, "jesus, i receive and call on your name today. I thank you for forgiving my sins. Come into my life, fill me with your holy spirit, in jesus name amen." welcome to the family of god.
What it reported doing in 2025
80,136 meals were made for the starving. 231 volunteers gave two hours of their time this year to help save lives. Over 80,136 meals were shipped to the refugees fleeing war in ukraine. We heard of many who were not christians tell our contacts that they didn't believe christians were honorable because of the things they had heard about them. But when they started receiving food from us and others, they changed their minds, and in many cases they changed to christianity because of it. Hopelessness turned into hope.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
- 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.
