Mission and programs · 2022

Mission

See Schedule O

Activities or mission (Part I)

To provide aid to improve the health, economic, social, and spiritual conditions of the poor.

  • Health - In 2022, Food For The Poor shipped 668 tractor- trailer loads of lifesaving medicines, medical supplies and equipment, personal protection equipment such as masks, sanitizer, and other critical essentials to help maintain clinics, hospitals, and medical-care centers to provide much needed medical care to poverty-stricken children and families.FFTP celebrated building the Medical Center for Children with Cancer in Honduras in partnership with an in-country entity. The center provides chemotherapy for children with cancer and does not charge for treatments.

    Expenses $256,854,970 · Grants $250,083,812

  • Basic Needs - The charity shipped 2,691 tractor-trailer loads of essential goods valued at more than $386 million in 2022.FFTP provided food for 224 million meals for hungry children and families. Also in 2022, FFTP ramped up purchasing food locally in the countries where it serves, reducing international shipping costs and getting resources sooner to the families who need them most. Food For The Poor distributes aid to support the feeding, clothing, and sheltering of children and families living in poverty. For those already struggling with the hardship of poverty, the suffering was amplified in 2022 with deadly disasters such as Hurricanes Fiona and Ian, and the ongoing global pandemic.

    Expenses $133,022,094 · Grants $115,952,917

  • Community Support & Development - Water wells, agricultural tools, seeds, training, and other grants were distributed enabling entire communities to grow their own food. Aquaculture ponds, fishing villages, fruit tree nurseries, animal husbandry projects and other programs we have funded give children and families living in poverty fresh hope for a better tomorrow.The charity continued to focus on building lives as well as building homes and schools, monitoring its progress to ensure better outcomes and sustained impact, and being resilient in how it responds to emergencies. Palma Real, located in Granada, Colombia, is the first large-scale sustainable community development constructed by FFTP and a trusted partner. The charity also partnered in a seed-to-market program for rural smallholder farming families. The resulting food is directed to existing FFTP feeding programs, providing locally sourced meals and snacks to children in Colombia and Haiti. In 2022, FFTP began the implementation of two more sustainable community developments (SCD) in Honduras, bringing the total of SCDs currently under development to nine, with locations in Guatemala, Colombia, El Salvador, Honduras, and Nicaragua. Sustainable community development, which typically takes about five years to complete, involves identifying and addressing economic, social, spiritual challenges that arise in a community, and empowering families to be self-sufficient and able to thrive long-term.

    Expenses $42,056,160 · Grants $39,375,751

  • Education - Food For The Poor was able to build, repair or expand schools and ship several tractor-trailers loads of school furniture, books, and educational supplies to schools, providing children with valuable tools for learning. We build schools that shelter students when it rains and protect them during the hotter months. In addition to building schools and providing supplies, FFTP also supports school feeding programs in the countries where we serve. For many vulnerable children, the nutritious food they receive at school may be their only meal of the day. The meals not only help a child concentrate, learn, and develop, but they also serve as a powerful incentive for parents to send their children to school.In 2022, FFTP built, repaired, or expanded 22 schools, and shipped 61 tractor-trailer loads of school furniture, books and educational supplies to schools, providing children with valuable tools for learning.

    Expenses $10,391,760 · Grants $9,638,875

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.
