Overview

Mission

Skylines core programs and services include our food resource center, mobile pantry, eye clinic, garden, and style shop. These initiatives address the most fundamental needs of our community, as many residents still struggle to access these essentials without our support.

What it reported doing in 2025

In addition to the programs highlighted on form 990, part 3, 4a, b, c, skyline has several other programs focused on reaching out to those in need. Launched in 2019, the skyline garden is a vital program designed to provide fresh produce directly to skyline patrons. In 2025, the garden contributed 9,176 pounds of fresh produce to our food resource center. The garden not only supports the health and wellness of our community but also offers regular educational opportunities. In 2025, skyline partnered with adelaide lee elementary school to integrate hands-on gardening lessons into the schools science curriculum. Over six weeks, the garden program provided weekly gardening lessons to 90 fourth grade students. Additionally, the garden offers adult education classes to both patrons and community members, fostering a deeper connection to healthy living and sustainable practices.

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 total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
