Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

The mission of Comfort Food Community is to provide nutritious food to our neighbors in need and to lead the community to end rural hunger.

  • FOOD CENTER:In 2024, the average weekly number of households visiting our Greenwich or Cossayuna pantries rose to 200, or 23% over 2023. This included 8,631 children, 15,264 adults, and 6,945 elderly clients served annually. Across all programs addressing food insecurity, CFC distributed 1,033,500 lbs. of food.

    Expenses $1,466,599

  • Other prgorams include ongoing outreach and education that provides educational programs for children and adults to encourage healthy food use, reinforce its nutritional benefits, and build skills around food preparation and waste reduction. The backpack program demonstrates CFC's collaborative efforts by aiding Greenwich School District students with weekend meals, guaranteeing they receive the necessary nutrition to thrive.

    Expenses $357,520

  • The CFC Food Recovery Program seeks to redirect surplus food to low-income families through a community-based distribution network. From its base of operations in Greenwich, New York, the FRP recovers food from farms and retail locations within a 40-mile radius. Food recovery consists of four methods: active, on-farm gleaning, farm pick-ups, farm deliveries, and retail pick-ups.

    Expenses $237,040

  • Community Health provides educational programs for children and adults to encourage healthy use of food and to reinforce its nutritional benefits, and to build skills around food preparation and waste reduction. In addition Community Health works on primary prevention through food-based interventions and resource navigation to connect clients with vital services and promote healthier outcomes.

    Expenses $177,386

  • The Food & Farm Hub in Greenwich is a specialized 20,000 sq. ft. facility suitable for storage of fresh and non-perishable food products, food cleaning and processing, and serving as a distribution center for delivery of nutritious food to CFC's clients and to our partner and program sites in Saratoga, Warren, and Washington

    Expenses $66,954

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.
