Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

Musically Fed mobilizes the music industry to combat hunger by partnering with artists, promoters, and venues across the country. We donate unused backstage meals to community organizations, primarily supporting individuals experiencing homelessness, hunger, and food insecurity, with a special focus on veterans and families. Founded in 2019, our mission is to make a positive impact in cities nationwide. Musically Fed identifies the opportunities, procures the resources, and coordinates the distribution of food items. Since our inception, Musically Fed has expanded its Food Rescue program, which repurposes unused catering from concerts, festivals, and events nationally. We also prioritize education and community engagement through partnerships with colleges and universities.

Activities or mission (Part I)

We are a non-profit organization that works to mobilize the music industry in the fight against hunger. We work with artists, promoters, management, and venues nationwide to donate unused, backstage meals to community organizations serving at least 50% veterans and who focus on feeding the homeless, hungry, and food insecure. Musically Fed identifies the opportunities, procures the resources, and coordinates all aspects of food handling, transport, and distribution. Our goal is to make it easy for promoters and performers to leave each city they visit with a lasting, positive impact.

  • Musically Fed focused on its main mission of repurposing backstage VIP live event catering to community organizations serving the food insecure. To date, Musically Fed has provided 655,000 meals nationally and reduced food waste in the process. During 2024 Musically Fed rescued approx 126,865 meals from backstage catering at concerts, festivals and sports events-nationwide. The meals were distributed to local organizations and veterans houses serving those in need.

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.

As filed, from the IRS e-Postcard file of 9 November 2026. The IRS publishes only each organization's most recent postcard, so earlier years are not shown. A 990-N carries no financial detail. The postcard also gives the principal officer's address, which is not shown here.

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.

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.
