01What it does

What Caja Solidaria Inc does

Mission

We envision a future where healthy, local foods bring us together as a community of care. Our mission is to ensure everyone has access to the abundance that the Southern Appalachian Mountains offer.

As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.

Programs

On its FY2023 return the organization reported starting a significant new program.

In 2023 Caja Solidaria added two programs to provide direct assistance to clients: Healthy Home Goods and Utility Assistance. Both programs provide aid to families needing support to cover emergency expenses and create healthy living environments.

Its own explanation, from Schedule O of that return (Part III, line 2).

  1. Caja Solidarias largest initiative in 2023 was our healthy food prescriptions by way of the Healthy Opportunities Pilot (HOP). All our prescriptions include a variety of seasonal and fresh produce, local regeneratively-grown meats, whole grains, seasonings, olive oil and local honey; selecting items that are culturally relevant to our participants. Our model is a free choice market wherein participants bring reusable bags to our pop-up markets or at their front door by way of our mobile markets and handpick the food their family will need for a week. We estimate 7 days worth of food to equal about 28 oz of protein, 14 oz whole grains, 9 cups of fruit and 12 cups of vegetables. We delivered 8,000 food boxes to 325 local families. We purchased $360k worth of food from local farms and vendors.

  2. In 2023, Caja Solidaria launched two new HOP programs: Essential Utility Assistance and Healthy Home Goods. We provided $7k in utility assistance to 17 families who were at risk of or had already had their water, gas, or electricity shut off. The Healthy Home Goods service provided participants with items known to eliminate health and safety risks to ensure that the living environment is not adversely affecting occupants health and safety. We purchased $28k worth of air filters, humidifiers, cleaning products, hypoallergenic bedding, non-toxic pest control and more for 46 families.

  3. In addition to this core programming, we also facilitated Nutrition Education Classes using the foods we purchase. A Mutual Aid Program; sharing supplies and funding small urgent and emergent needs. And, we supported three Community Engagement Circles. These groups self-organize their activities around shared interests and needs including culturally relevant nutrition, financial literacy, parenting education, exercise and more.

The 3 programs described on its FY2023 Form 990, listed largest first by expense. Program spending in total: $1,189,529.

The organization over time

Each line starts at 100 in 2022, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2022, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.

03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2022 → 2023: the base held at 2 funders, grant income rose $155k → $297k.

2 of 8 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 3% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

From the IRS filings of Caja Solidaria Inc’s funders (the co-funder graph). Association, not causation. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.

How concentrated its funding is

Caja Solidaria Inc leans on a few funders — its largest provides 85% of grant income and the top three 92%; half comes from just 1 funder.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left

97% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund Caja Solidaria Inc.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $24k arriving through sponsors registered in 2 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been.
