Mission and programs · 2024

• 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 $959,695

• 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 $333,480

Officers and directors · 2024

As listed in Part VII of the 2024 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

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. 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.
