Mission and programs · 2024

• Food Program: We operated a smaller weekly food shelf until April 2025. Our services reached 1,686 households by from August to January 2025 serving 7,966 people and giving out 24,146 pounds of food. This program will be different moving forward because we lost our rental space at the end of May 2025.

  Expenses $25,962

• Events: This fiscal year we hosted two major community events: a Fall Festival and a Thankgiving meal giveaway. The Fall Festival included a coat giveaway as well as a Trunk or Treat and was attended by well over 500 community members. We also hosted a food distribution at this event that served 178 households. At our Thankgiving meal event we packed and passed out Thankgiving meals for 115 families. Each meal included a frozen turkey a pie potatoes butter and stuffing along with a few other items.

  Expenses $6,169

• Youth Employment Program: This year we reduced our youth employment program in size due to a restructuring of our food distribution program. We continued to mentor and work with two young Latina females assigning them greater roles in the organization as they took more responsibility for the food shelf. We paid a total of four youth as occasional contractors in addition to the two key employees referenced earlier. Some of the funding was tied to grants through the food program however and is not reported in this programs expenses.

  Expenses $1,165

As filed on the 2024 return.

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. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

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.
