Mission and programs · 2024

• The goal of Feed the Need Charleston is to support organizations involved in feeding at-risk residents of the greater Charleston area, including One80Place, Neighbors Together, and Neighborhood House. This initiative is accomplished by fund raising events throughout the year, including, but not limited to Dining For A Cause, and FTN Kiawah Island Golf Outing. These events are made possible through the assistance of many local food and beverage professionals which support Feed the Need Charleston in achieving our fundraising goals. In addition, Feed the Need Charleston supports job training programs aimed at assisting people in finding opportunities to better their lives.

  Expenses $870,191 · Grants $870,033

• Teach the Need, a recently launched initiative, is providing a 6-week restaurant skills curriculum to students in eight area, Title I high schools. The goal is to help these young adults develop the skills and confidence needed to secure - and keep - jobs in the food and beverage industry.

As filed on the 2024 return.

Listed in Part VII

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.
