What Family Meals Inc does
Mission
Provide the ingredients for a Holiday home cooked family meal for the working poor, invisible poor families who do not qualify for food stamps free school lunch programs and who may be too proud to ask for a little help when they come up short. Provide emergency food when needed
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
Our Thanksgiving outreach totals extended to well over a thousand families. The community donated turkeys so each family could cook a whole turkey or chicken using their traditional recipes. Turkeys, fresh produce and all the fixings went into the food bag delivery. Families were able to host a full holiday meal with plenty of leftovers to share long after the holiday. We assisted over 600 families this Easter. We learned cereal was the most requested item in the springtime. We collected over 1200 boxes of cereal. Those boxes went into the meal bags as well as fresh produce, dry milk and plenty of fixings so the families could enjoy family meals for Easter and Springtime. Weve identified that some families cant celebrate birthdays due to financial constraints, leading us to introduce a cake pan delivery initiative. Cake mix is included, and the cake is baked with soda instead of eggs and oil.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2022 to 2023, from $66k to $40k (−39%).
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.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 5 of the last 9 reported years ran a deficit.

From the IRS filings of Family Meals 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.

“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration. 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.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $6k 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.
