Overview

Mission

To relieve hunger and support needy, homeless, and food-insecure individuals by preparing, cooking, packaging, and distributing nutritious meals to shelters and other charitable facilities serving vulnerable populations.

What it reported doing in 2025

The organization operated a charitable meal distribution program for needy and food-insecure individuals. Volunteers and/or staff prepared, cooked, packaged, and delivered nutritious meals to homeless shelters, community shelters, transitional housing facilities, and other charitable programs serving low-income, homeless, or otherwise distressed populations. The program helped relieve hunger, supported shelters in meeting the basic needs of their residents, and provided practical assistance to vulnerable individuals who lack reliable access to adequate food.

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.
  • Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of total spending goes to programs. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
