Overview

Mission

Assisting families and individuals of Delaware county in a collaborative effort by providing personal emergency assistance with dignity and respect in their time of need.

What it reported doing in 2024

Emergency assistance - we address housing insecurity and access to services for families and individuals. Through partnerships with landlords and mortgage and utility providers, we coordinate payment directly to the vendor to prevent a utility shut off or to stop eviction or foreclosure proceedings for 30 days, to allow the client to develop a plan of action for themselves and/or their family. During the summer months, we have a fan program for those without air conditioning or low functioning air conditioning. We also provide bus passes for those with limited, or no means of transportation.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 89% 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

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.
