Mission

See Schedule O.

  • At the core of our work is food service, often the first point of connection for our meal guests. Our Daily Meals Program in downtown Silver Spring provides three nutritious, chef-curated meals from Monday to Friday, along with brunch and dinner on weekends, holidays, and snow emergency days. To extend our reach beyond our dining room, our Beyond the Table Program delivers meals to children and families in need, identified through partnerships with schools, government agencies, and nonprofits. In 2024, we served 168,900 meals in our main dining room, representing a 16% increase over the previous year.

    Expenses $3,193,787

  • We recognize that food is just the beginning. A meal can serve as the first step toward stability, healing, and self-sufficiency, which is why we provide comprehensive social services to help individuals regain stability and their well-being. Through our Resource Center, guests can access daily necessities and a mailing address. This year, the Resource Center assisted 1,800 unique individuals by providing essential services, including prescription refills, hygiene products, referrals, and weekly distributions of underwear and socks. The Clothing Closet alone, which can be visited by clients by appointment on Fridays, saw 1,873 instances of shopping. Our Clothing Closet offers clean, weather-appropriate clothing for those in need.? Our Eye Clinic offers free eye exams and prescription glasses.

    Expenses $627,734

  • The Culinary Skills Training Program is a self-empowerment program that teaches marketable culinary skills to cohorts of about 8 students. The program includes 12 weeks of hands-on training in a professional kitchen combined with courses that support life skills, discipline in the workplace, and professionalism. As part of the program, students also obtain a ServSafe food handler certification. After 12 weeks of training, students go through a 4-week externship in a professional kitchen. About two thirds of the programs graduates have found employment.

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.
