Overview

Mission

Providing food to those in need.

What it reported doing in 2025

Providing food such as shelf stable groceries as well as milk, eggs, fresh produce, frozen meats, toiletries, and some household goods to individuals and families in need. In FY 2025 we fulfilled more than 2100 household visits representing more than 7800 individuals.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 99% 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.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
