What Feeding Indiana's Hungry Inc does

Mission

By drawing on varied resources within public agencies and the private sector, we hope to provide hunger relief for those in need throughout Indiana.

As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.

Programs

On its FY2024 return the organization reported starting a significant new program.

The organization has begun to provide member services in the areas of food sourcing and Food is Medicine policy work.

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

  1. Feeding Indiana's Hungry provides assistance to member food banks through public education and advocacy, cooperation on statewide initiatives and special projects. Funding comes from dues paid by member food banks based on poverty and unemployment data, gifts and grants.

  4. Hoosier Hogs to Homes, formerly named Million Meals, is a partnership with the Indiana Pork Producers supported 100% by contributions. Indiana Pork markets the program to its members and allied industries. Feeding Indiana's Hungry accepts and processes financial donations, purchases pork for processing, and arranges transportation to food banks. The pounds distributed are based on a formula that considers unemployment and poverty on a county by county basis. This program income and expenses are held in a separate account and are usually spent down annually.

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. 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

2017 → 2023: the base held at 4 funders, grant income rose $99k → $115k.

5 of 12 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 4% 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 Feeding Indiana's Hungry 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

Feeding Indiana's Hungry Inc leans on a few funders — its largest provides 60% of grant income and the top three 90%; half comes from just 1 funder.

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

38% 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 Feeding Indiana's Hungry Inc.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $156k arriving through sponsors registered in 4 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.
