Overview

Mission

Keystone opportunity center is a leading provider of social service programs across bucks and montgomery counties. The three main areas of focus are housing, food, and education.

What it reported doing in 2024

Food programs - keystone's food programs offer community members struggling with food insecurity the resources needed to ensure they and their families have access to health food options, allowing their limited finances to be dedicated to housing security. Keystone's food pantry provides shelf- stable food, fresh produce, meat, diary products and specialty foods. Keystone also operates a fresh for all program that distributes 5,500 pounds of fresh produce into the community every week.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 95% 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.
  • Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised and expenses are high relative to revenue.
