Mission and programs · 2024
Mission
Food distribution to the hungry throughout an eight county service territory in Southeast Texas.
-
Our chief service is the distribution of food to approximately 89 member social service agencies who in turn distribute the food to thousands of low-income members of the community through pantries, meal sites, or residential centers.
Expenses $24,150,464 · Revenue $21,588,849
-
Our backpack program provides food for weekend use at home to low-income elementary school students identified by their school administration as needing this free service. The program is extended through June to August for students who are in summer school. We serve more than 18,000 students annually through this process.
Expenses $570,845 · Revenue $295,356
-
Our school tools program makes free school supplies available to approximately 52 eligible schools each year in economically challenged communities which in turn use those supplies in their classrooms to give low-income students access to supplies they lack.
Expenses $403,282 · Revenue $314,453

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.
