THE ARKANSAS FOODBANK ACQUIRES, THROUGH LOCAL AND NATIONAL PARTNERSHIPS, LARGE QUANTITIES OF FOOD AND OTHER RESOURCES TO DISTRIBUTE TO HUNGRY PEOPLE IN THE STATE OF ARKANSAS. THE ARKANSAS FOODBANK SUPPORTS PROGRAMS FOR CHILDREN AS WELL AS LOCAL FOOD DISTRIBUTION AGENCIES.
-
OUR FOOD FOR FAMILIES PROGRAM FOCUSES ON CONNECTING OUR PARTNER AGENCIES WITH LOCAL, STATE AND NATIONAL RESOURCES WITH FOOD AND FUNDS TO STRENGTHEN THEIR PROGRAMS, ULTIMATELY ENABLING THEM TO BETTER SERVE THEIR COMMUNITY. TO DO THIS, WE EMPLOY THE FOLLOWING TACTICS: WORK TO PROVIDE ACCESS TO HEALTHY AND NUTRITIOUS FOOD TO FAMILIES; PARTNER WITH OVER 330 AGENCIES THAT INCLUDE COMMUNITY PANTRIES, SOUP KITCHENS AND SHELTERS ACROSS 33 COUNTIES; PROVIDE MINI-GRANTS TO BUILD AGENCY CAPACITY THAT CAN SERVE AS FOOD CREDITS AND/OR PURCHASE EQUIPMENT; CONDUCT FOODBANK UNIVERSITY TRAINING SESSIONS TO IMPROVE PANTRY SERVICES THROUGH AN ARRAY OF BEST PRACTICE TOPIES; AND DESIGN AND IMPLEMENT NEW PROGRAM INITIATIVES TO TACKLE BARRIERS TO FOOD SECURITY.

USDA COMMODITIES: LOCAL, STATE AND NATIONAL GOVERNMENTS RECOGNIZE THE IMPORTANCE OF PROVIDING ADEQUATE RESOURCES FOR CITIZENS. GOVERNMENT PROGRAMS THAT HELP FEED HUNGRY PEOPLE INCLUDE: SNAP, WIC, TEFAP AND CSFP COMMODITIES. LOCALLY, CITY AND COUNTY GOVERNMENTS PROVIDE SUPPORT TO SOUP KITCHENS AND PANTRIES AND PARTNER WITH LOCAL ORGANIZATIONS TO CONNECT HUNGRY PEOPLE WITH RESOURCES. COLLABORATIONS BETWEEN THE PUBLIC, PRIVATE AND NON-PROFIT SECTORS ARE THE MOST EFFECTIVE AT ADDRESSING HUNGER. THE EMERGENCY FOOD ASSISTANCE PROGRAM (TEFAP) IS AN EFFECTIVE FEDERAL PROGRAM THAT HELPS SUPPLEMENT THE DIETS OF LOW INCOME AMERICANS, BY PROVIDING THEM WITH EMERGENCY FOOD AND NUTRITION ASSISTANCE VIA FOOD BANKS. THE PROGRAM WAS DESIGNED TO HELP REDUCE FEDERAL FOOD INVENTORIES AND STORAGE COSTS WHILE ASSISTING LOW INCOME PERSONS. TEFAP IS THE BACKBONE OF THE CHARITABLE FOOD SYSTEM.

OUR FOOD FOR KIDS PROGRAM FOCUSES ON EFFECTIVE, COST-EFFICIENT AND REPLICABLE HUNGER RELIEF PROGRAMS TO TARGET CHILDREN. AS WE RESEARCHED THE ANSWERS TO OUR QUESTIONS, FOUR STRATEGIES EMERGED THAT CLEARLY MET THE CRITERIA. BACKPACK PROGRAM: IN 1994, THE ARKANSAS RICE DEPOT LAUNCHED THE BACKPACK PROGRAM, SENDING HUNGRY CHILDREN HOME WITH BACKPACKS FILLED WITH FOOD EVERY WEEKEND. IN 2022 THE BACKPACK PROGRAM, SERVED OVER 3,000 KIDS IN 67 SCHOOLS. SCHOOL PANTRIES: SCHOOL PANTRIES ARE READILY ACCESSIBLE SOURCES OF FOOD ASSISTANCE FOR LOW INCOME CHILDREN AGED 0-18 AND THEIR FAMILIES. SCHOOL PANTRIES OPERATE MUCH LIKE OTHER FOOD PANTRIES, WITH THE EXCEPTION THAT THE PANTRY ONLY SERVES SCHOOL CHILDREN AND THEIR FAMILIES. SITES ARE EITHER LOCATED ON A SCHOOL'S CAMPUS OF CLOSE BY, HAVE SET DISTRIBUTION SCHEDULES, AND OFFER ONGOING FOOD ASSISTANCE SERVICES. SUMMER FEEDING PROGRAMS: PROVIDE FOOD BOXES TO KIDS AND THEIR FAMILIES THROUGH PARTNERSHIPS WITH BOYS AND GIRLS CLUBS AND OTHER PARTNERS THROUGHOUT THE SUMMER MONTHS.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
