Overview

Mission

Meals on wheels of western broome is a private, not-for-profit dedicated to providing seniors nutritious, home-delivered meals and daily check-ins to ensure healthy independence.

What it reported doing in 2025

Assist the homebound and elderly to remain independent and self sustaining as long as possible from hospitalization and/or prematurenursing home care.

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 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. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
