Distribution of Nutritional Foods Community Food Rescue (CFR):Community Food Rescue gathers and distributes perishable foods such as produce, dairy, restaurant and bakery items that might otherwise be discarded. The food is picked up daily and delivered on the same day at no cost to our agencies that feed on-site. This program annually saves almost 8.8 million pounds of food in our service area across 36 agencies in North and South Carolina.Distribution of Produce, Meat, Seafood, and Dairy:SHFBM places a special emphasis on soliciting and distributing highly nutritious foods including produce, meats, dairy and seafood, needed for balanced and healthy diets.

SHFBM distributed 89,994,859 bs of this product to over 950 partner agencies through our 24 county service region of North and South Carolina and to other food banks in 2023-2024.Purchased: In 2023-2024 SHFBM received 4,660,502 in grants and donations restricted for food purhcases. These gifts enabled the food bank to secure highly nutrious products that are rarely donated. Salvage: At the main warehouse of SHFBM, nonperishable foods and non-food items donated from food drives and salvage centers are sorted and packaged for distrubtion to our partner agencies. This project is one of our most popular volunteer activities. A total of 4,793,957 lbs were processed during the fiscal year. Our Partner Agencies: In the past year, Second Harvest Food Bank (SHFBM) supported over 950 partner agencies feeding the hungry in our 24 county service region spread across North and South Carolina. These agencies include emergency pantries, soup kitchens, homeless shelters, low income daycares, kids cafes, backpack and senior programs.Government Commodities: While the majority of the Food Bank's product is donated by wholesalers, retailers, and the general public, 16,409,040 pounds came from government commodities and 2,415,133 pounds from the State Directed Grant. Government Commodities come from the Department of Agriculture in North Carolina and the South Carolina Department of Agriculture. These commodities are distributed to agencies based on the poverty levels in each county. With our share of the state funds ($830,000 for food), we purchased highly nutritious food from North Carolina businesses for distribution to emergency pantries in the 14 counties we serve in NC. Government Commodities Commodity Supplemental Food Program(CSFP):SHFBM and our partner agencies take part in providing highly nutritious food boxes to qualifying seniors under the Commodity Supplemental Food Program (CSFP). Each month, these seniors are able to receive a box of food containing items sent by the North Carolina Department of Agriculture and the South Carolina Department of Agriculture. In 2023-2024, SHFBM and their partner agencies distributed, 1,441,789 pounds (33,446 boxes) to seniors in 16 counties within North Carolina and South Carolina.Ending Child and Senior Hunger Kids Caf: SHFBM believes that no child or senior should ever go hungry. Two of our major goals are to implement programs that help us end child and senior hunger in our region. These programs include: Kids Caf, Backpack Program, and Second Helping Program.Kids Caf: This program works with partner agencies that serve at risk children. Examples include: Boys and Girls Clubs, Communities in Schools and low-income day cares. The Food Bank makes it possible for these agencies to add a feedingcomponent so that at-risk children can have access to nutritious meals and snacks. As of the end of 2023-2024, SHFBM had 29 Kids Caf sites in 5 different counties. Ending Child and Senior Hunger Backpack Program:SHFBM believes that no child or senior should ever go hungry.

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.
