Mission and programs · 2024
Mission
To advocate for changes in policies, programs and conditions that allow hunger and poverty to persist, both in the United States and around the world.
Activities or mission (Part I)
Advocate for changes in policies/programs/conditions that allow hunger & poverty to persist.
-
Public Education: The Offering of Letters (OL) is Bread for the World's primary activism tool and on-ramp. The OL is a powerful event concept, where churches and community groups learn about hunger-related concerns and organize letter-writing to educate their Congressional representatives about policies to end hunger. These letters and emails from congregations, campuses, and community groups help inspire Congressional leaders to change policies and programs to reduce hunger in the U.S. and around the world. (To be continued in Schedule O)Bread supported the successes described here through sustained education, collaboration, and public witness. Bread worked alongside more than seventy-five partner organizations to build awareness and political will for policies that address hunger and provide emergency assistance.
Expenses $2,487,561 · Revenue $47,744

Outreach and Advocacy: Our bipartisan network includes more than 320,000 people and churches who are active in every congressional district. Bread's network includes individuals, churches, congregations, parishes, and partners who are motivated to pray, act, and give for an end to hunger. Our network engages digitally, in person, and through prayer to achieve remarkable policy impact and legislative victories. (To be continued in Schedule O)In 2024, Bread saw remarkable policy impact and legislative victories, along with high engagement on our digital channels. We hosted 24 virtual webinars, engaging a total of 2,028 registrants. Our advocacy efforts and OL events with individual members, churches, and faith partners in 2024 resulted in 39,164 letters written to Congress on hunger-related issues and 433 visits with Congressional offices in DC and the field. Throughout 2024, Bread staff and volunteers worked to build the newly launched Nourish Our Future campaign seeking to reduce child hunger. Over 1,400 Bread members and partners shaped the campaign's policy priorities through 101 listening sessions. In June, Bread gathered 227 members and advocates in Washington, D.C. for our annual Advocacy Summit. As part of the Summit, we held a Latino consultation, a Pan-African convening, and a Hill Day to educate and inform advocates about policies that address hunger and poverty.

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.
