Mission and programs · 2022

Mission

Musically Fed's mission is to mobilize the music industry in the fight against hunger. We work with artists, promoters, management and venues nationwide to donate unused backstage meals to community organizations that feed the homeless, hungry and food insecure. Musically Fed identifies the opportunities, procures the resources, and coordinates all aspects of food handling, transport, and distribution. Our daily goal is to make it easy for promoters and performers to leave each city they visit with a lasting positive impact. Over the past four years, our Phoenix-based non-profit has provided meals to thousands in need across America. Contributions enable us to grow and rescue unused backstage meals from additional live events.

Activities or mission (Part I)

We are a non-profit organization that works to mobilize the music industry in the fight against hunger. We work with artists, promoters, management, and venues nationwide to donate unused, backstage meals to community organizations serving at least 50% veterans and who focus on feeding the homeless, hungry, and food insecure. Musically Fed identifies the opportunities, procures the resources, and coordinates all aspects of food handling, transport, and distribution. Our goal is to make it easy for promoters and performers to leave each city they visit with a lasting, positive impact.

  • In 2022, live events slowly made a comeback as a result of pretesting for Covid-19 prior to entering live event venues. Musically Fed returned to its main mission of repurposing backstage concert catering to the food insecure. To date Musically Fed has provided 438,000 meals nationally and reduced food waste in the process. During 2022 Musically Fed repurposed approx 78,700 meals from backstage and VIP catering at concerts, festivals and sports events-nationwide. The meals were distributed to community organizations and veterans houses serving the food insecure and those in need.

    Expenses $78,000 · Grants $50,000 · Revenue $75,560

  • Musically Fed, with the lessening of Covid-19 restrictions, restarted delivery of fresh food items and meals to veterans organizations. Several veterans groups returned to scheduling weekly member luncheons, ceremonies and meetings at pre-Covid-19 levels. With the rescued catering from backstage live events Musically Fed provided high quality meals to veterans across America.

    Expenses $26,700 · Grants $20,000 · Revenue $25,000

  • During 2022 Musically Fed provided nutritious snacks to students of The Phoenix Conservatory of Music for their after school program and delivered repurposed catering meals for student musical events.

    Expenses $10,218 · Grants $7,500 · Revenue $10,000

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week.

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.
