Mission

IN 2024, THE LIVINGSTON FOOD RESOURCE CENTER (LFRC) CONTINUED ITS MISSION OF ADDRESSING FOOD INSECURITY AND PROMOTING COMMUNITY WELL-BEING ACROSS PARK COUNTY. THROUGH INNOVATIVE PROGRAMS, PARTNERSHIPS WITH LOCAL PRODUCERS, AND ADAPTING TO A STEADILY INCREASING NEED, WE DEEPENED OUR IMPACT IN THE COMMUNITY, SERVING MORE FAMILIES AND EXPANDING ACCESS TO NUTRITIOUS FOOD.

Activities or mission (Part I)

THE MISSION OF THE LIVINGSTON FOOD PANTRY OF PARK COUNTY IS TO ENSURE THAT NO PERSON IN LIVINGSTON OR PARK COUNTY, MONTANA, EVER SUFFERS FROM FOOD INSUFFICIENCY. MUCH OF THE AREA SERVED IS LOW-INCOME AND RURAL; MORE THAN 16% OF THE HOUSEHOLDS IN LIVINGSTON LIVE BELOW THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL, SO THE NEED IS GREAT. SINCE ITS FOUNDING IN 2005, THE LIVINGSTON FOOD PANTRY HAS GROWN AND EVOLVED TO MEET THE CHANGING NEEDS OF THE MANY CHILDREN, ADULTS, AND ELDERLY WHO STRUGGLE WITH HUNGER AND OTHER TRAUMATIC ISSUES RESULTING FROM LIVING IN POVERTY. INNOVATIVE PROGRAMS HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED TO LEVERAGE THE PANTRY'S ROLE IN THE COMMUNITY'S FOOD SYSTEM, ECONOMY, HEALTH CARE AND EDUCATION SYSTEMS. THE PROGRAMS ARE DESIGNED AND IMPLEMENTED TO ADDRESS THE ROOT CAUSES OF POVERTY AND HUNGER IN MEANINGFUL AND LONG-LASTING WAYS. THE PANTRY STRIVES TO ACCOMPLISH ITS MISSION BY ENSURING ACCESS TO NUTRITIOUS FOOD; HELPING DRIVE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT; AND IMPROVING ACCESS TO ADEQUATE HEALTH CARE AND EDUCATIO

  • COMMUNITY PROGRAMS: MOBILE PANTRY: OUR MOBILE PANTRY PROGRAM EXTENDS NUTRITIONAL SUPPORT TO COMMUNITY MEMBERS WHO CANNOT ACCESS THE MAIN PANTRY DUE TO LIMITED TRANSPORTATION, THE RISING COST OF GAS, OR SCHEDULING CONFLICTS. IN 2024, THE PROGRAM OPERATED ONCE A MONTH AT THREE LOCATIONS-CLYDE PARK, WILSALL, AND EMIGRANT-AND RECORDED 819 TOTAL VISITS ACROSS 36 EVENTS. BY BRINGING FOOD DIRECTLY TO WHERE PEOPLE LIVE, THE MOBILE PANTRY ENSURES CONSISTENT, LOCAL ACCESS TO NUTRITIOUS FOOD FOR SOME OF OUR MOST RURAL AND UNDERSERVED NEIGHBORS. PANTRY SUPPER CLUB: THIS PROGRAM PROVIDES NUTRITIOUS, SCRATCH-MADE DINNERS FIVE NIGHTS A WEEK TO LOW-INCOME AND FIXED-INCOME INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE UNABLE TO PREPARE ADEQUATE MEALS FOR THEMSELVES. IN 2024, 12,315 MEALS WERE PREPARED AND DELIVERED. OF THOSE SERVED, 77% WERE SENIORS, MANY OF WHOM RELY ON THESE MEALS AS THEIR PRIMARY SOURCE OF NOURISHMENT. ONE CLIENT SHARED, "I AM SO THANKFUL FOR THESE MEALS. I WASN'T GETTING ENOUGH FOOD." COUNTY-WIDE REACH: THROUGH THE MOBILE PANTRY AND PANTRY SUPPER CLUB, WE REACHED OUR MOST ISOLATED NEIGHBORS-DRIVING 3,657 MILES IN PARADISE VALLEY AND 694 MILES IN SHIELDS VALLEY TO DELIVER NOT ONLY FOOD, BUT ALSO CONNECTION. THESE PROGRAMS OFFER MORE THAN NOURISHMENT; THEY OFFER PRESENCE. WHEN OUR CLIENTS ARE IN CRISIS, WE ARE OFTEN ONE OF THE FIRST CALLS THEY MAKE-A TESTAMENT TO THE DEEP TRUST WE'VE BUILT IN COMMUNITIES ACROSS PARK COUNTY. MENTAL HEALTH AND BENEFITS NAVIGATION: THE COUNSELING PROGRAM, A FLAGSHIP PROGRAM UNIQUE TO LFRC, REFLECTS OUR COMMITMENT TO WALKING ALONGSIDE CLIENTS-NOT JUST FEEDING THEM. IN 2024, WE OFFERED 325 COUNSELING SESSIONS AND HELPED 145 HOUSEHOLDS APPLY FOR SNAP BENEFITS. THROUGH A NEW PARTNERSHIP WITH MONTANA LEGAL SERVICES ASSOCIATION, A LEGAL ADVOCATE NOW VISITS MONTHLY TO ASSIST CLIENTS WITH PUBLIC BENEFITS AND OTHER CRITICAL NEEDS. THIS HOLISTIC SUPPORT STRENGTHENS OUR COMMUNITY FAR BEYOND THE PANTRY SHELVES. FARMERS MARKET TENT: IN 2024, OUR FARMERS MARKET PROGRAM CONNECTED 188 CLIENTS WITH LOCAL FARMERS, SUPPORTING BOTH NUTRITION ACCESS AND OUR LOCAL FOOD ECONOMY. THE LFRC PRODUCE TENT SAW 653 TOTAL VISITS, HELPING CLIENTS BRING HOME FRESH, SEASONAL PRODUCE. SENIOR COMMODITIES: IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE MONTANA DPHHS, WE DISTRIBUTED 9,553 POUNDS OF FRESH SUPPLEMENTAL NUTRITION TO SENIORS THROUGH THE SENIOR COMMODITIES PROGRAM. DESIGNED FOR THOSE OVER 60 LIVING BELOW 130% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL, THIS PROGRAM OFFERS KAMUT BREAD. THANKSGIVING MEAL KITS: WE DISTRIBUTED 383 SCRATCH-MADE THANKSGIVING MEAL KITS, PREPARED IN OUR COMMUNITY KITCHEN. EACH KIT INCLUDED GREEN BEAN CASSEROLE, STUFFING, PUMPKIN BARS, KAMUT DINNER ROLLS, CRANBERRY SAUCE, AND GRAVY-ENSURING FAMILIES COULD ENJOY A NOURISHING HOLIDAY MEAL MADE WITH CARE. BACKPACK BUDDIES: BECAUSE HUNGER DOESN'T STOP WHEN SCHOOL DOES, OUR BACKPACK BUDDIES PROGRAM PROVIDED 8,294 FOOD BAGS ACROSS FOUR SCHOOLS, OFFERING NUTRITIOUS, EASY-TO-PREPARE MEALS FOR STUDENTS OVER THE WEEKEND. SATELLITE SCHOOL PANTRIES: LAUNCHED IN SPRING 2024, OUR SATELLITE SCHOOL PANTRIES AT PARK HIGH SCHOOL AND SLEEPING GIANT MIDDLE SCHOOL QUICKLY BECAME ESSENTIAL DAILY RESOURCES. PARK HIGH SAW 2,198 STUDENT VISITS AND SGMS SAW 648 VISITS, OFFERING CONSISTENT SUPPORT FOR OLDER STUDENTS WHO MAY NOT BENEFIT FROM WEEKEND-ONLY FOOD PROGRAMS. SUMMER LUNCH: THROUGH THREE SUMMER LUNCH SITES, LFRC SERVED 2,210 MEALS, ENSURING KIDS HAD ACCESS TO BALANCED, NUTRITIOUS FOOD EVEN WHEN SCHOOL WAS OUT. KAMUT FOR COMMUNITY BREAD: IN 2024, WE BAKED 10,485 LOAVES OF WHOLE-GRAIN BREAD FOR LOCAL SCHOOLS, PANTRIES, AND MEAL PROGRAMS. THIS YEAR, WE ALSO BEGAN SOURCING KAMUT FROM THE CHIPPEWA CREE AT ROCKY BOY RESERVATION, SUPPORTING INDIGENOUS AGRICULTURE AND DEEPENING LOCAL PARTNERSHIPS.

As filed on the 2024 return. The filer continues this part on Schedule O, which is not shown here. A text marked withheld matched a screen for wording that may name a private individual, such as an honorific or "in memory of". Most of what it withholds names no one; it is withheld so that what does is never shown.

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. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all.

Grants made

No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.

Grants received

The 10 largest by cash amount. The API serves every itemized grant.

Other IRS files

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Listed as of 13 October 2026, under deductibility PC.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
