Programs

  1. Community free mealsFamily Kitchen is a community free meal program in bend, oregon. We serve either a lunch or a dinner daily (both on friday) and also one meal weekly in sisters, oregon. In december 2023, we served 6,087 free meals to community members. Family Kitchen's small staff is supported by over 450 volunteers who contribute their time each month to prepare meals, do dishes, shop for food and supplies, and deliver and serve meals to diners. Our diners are of all ages and stages: some living on a fixed income, some marginally employed, some unemployed, some housed, some houseless. Anyone who comes to our door is offered nutritious meals, no questions asked. In addition to serving meals at our bend location, our fresh to-go meals are delivered each week to housing for low income and disabled people, camps for the houseless, and various other community partners.

Each line starts at 100 in 2023, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2023, 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.

How it's funded, over time

Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.

03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2017 → 2023: the base narrowed from 4 funders to 3 funders, grant income fell $24k → $16k.

3 of 19 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 18% 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 FAMILY KITCHEN’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 18 of 19 funders by total. 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

Share of funders still giving k years after their first recorded grant, pooled across every acquisition cohort. A funder counts as retained in a year only if it made a grant that year. Measured to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving — a funder cannot be counted as lapsed in a year most filers have not reached.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $45k 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. 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.
