Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

Stronghold serves American food-insecure active duty service members and their families with dignity and respect through its food pantries and basic needs programs.

Activities or mission (Part I)

Stronghold Food Pantry reduces food insecurity in the military community by providing free groceries, basic essentials, and support services to active-duty military and their military-connected families through on-site distribution and national outreach programs.

  • The main headquarters food pantry at Fort Leavenworth distributed over 72,500 pounds of food to 5,970 US military individuals and their families facing food insecurity in 2024. This was thanks to an all-volunteer force working across 16 states and 4 countries, donating over 3,500 combined hours of their time.

    Expenses $83,642

  • The Newborn and Toddler Support program provided formula, diapers, wipes, and other necessities to over 100 military families in 2024, with growth through direct sponsorships of this program in 2024 continuing in 2025. Additionally, Stronghold partnered with Happy Bottoms to provide diapers to 25 military families monthly throughout 2024. THE EXPENSE AND REVENUE (directed donation supporting the program) was recognized in December 2023 and again in January 2025, which resulted in no direct program costs in 2024. The 2025 taxes will reflect both 2024 and 2025 since the cost was incurred in January 2025.

  • School-aged Military Child Support programs saw continued growth in 2024, with Pack the Backpack providing backpacks filled with school supplies to 100 military kids and Hunger Buster Packs providing nutritious meals for over 500 food-insecure school-aged military dependents in the Fort Leavenworth area.

    Expenses $1,939

  • The Ambassador program provided grocery delivery and pickup to service members stationed outside the main pantry locations of Fort Leavenworth. A total of XX families were served in 2024 across XX installations.

    Expenses $2,298

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.
