Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

THE ORGANIZATION PROVIDES RELIEF IN THE FORM OF FOOD DISTRIBUTION TO FOOD INSECURE FAMILIES AND INDIVIDUALS IN LEHIGH COUNTY.

  • A CLIENT CHOICE PANTRY ALLOWS CLIENTS TO SELECT THEIR OWN FOOD INSTEAD OF RECEIVING PREPACKED BAGS OF GROCERIES. WITH THIS METHOD, CLIENTS DO NOT HAVE TO TAKE ITEMS THEY ALREADY HAVE, DO NOT LIKE, OR CANNOT EAT FOR HEALTH OR PERSONAL REASONS AND INSTEAD THEY CHOOSE ITEMS THAT ARE MOST NEEDED IN THEIR HOME. OUR PANTRY OFFERS SHELF-STABLE FOODS SUCH AS CANNED VEGETABLES AND BEANS, PASTA AND RICE, PASTA SAUCE AND SOUPS. THERE ARE ALSO REFRIGERATORS AND FREEZERS LOADED WITH FRESH AND FROZEN PRODUCE, MEATS, AND DAIRY PRODUCTS. ADDITIONALLY, WE OFFER CLIENTS PERSONAL CARE ITEMS SUCH AS TOOTHBRUSHES, TOOTHPASTE, SOAP AND SHAMPOO WHEN AVAILABLE. HISTORICALLY, APPROXIMATELY, 60% OF THESE PRODUCTS ARE SUPPLIED BY THE FEDERALLY FUNDED THE EMERGENCY FOOD ASSISTANCE PROGRAM (TEFAP).

    Expenses $547,316

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.

What this page reflects

The registration facts above come from the IRS Business Master File published 13 October 2026 and read 1 November 2026, for every organization at once. Returns through tax year 2024, the newest we have parsed for this organization.
