What Inter Parish Ministry Inc does
Mission
Feeding families in need and connecting neighbors to life-enhancing resources.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
IPM has transformed the traditional food pantry model by meeting families where they are - in addition to our new food pantry where neighbors can shop inside or go through our drive through, IPM has an extensive network of mobile food pantries and pop-up pantries that meet our neighbors where they live, learn, play and pray. We bring food curbside to our neighbors by showing up at schools, churches, affordable housing complexes and many other locations right in their community. Additionally, IPM's Food Link program provides food for 72 school districts and social service agencies (i.e., Veterans Affairs, Boys & Girls Club and WIC) by coordinating distribution and delivery of emergency food boxes. We provide shelf stable food along with fresh produce, dairy, eggs, meat and more (including personal care items) to ensure a thriving, food-secure community.
$4,771,777 spentof which $3,698,061 as grants99% of program spendingFamilies and individuals moving into new housing after being in adverse situations such as homelessness, incarceration or out of a recovery program are faced with many challenges. IPM's innovative Fresh Start Kitchen provides individuals with a fresh start in their homes by filling the kitchen with groceries, spices, baking supplies and general kitchen items. Individuals can fill their kitchen with brand new items they select: from dishes and utensils to pots & pans and a microwave. We believe the kitchen is the heart of the home and brings families together in good and bad times. Fresh Start Kitchen gives our neighbors more than just a fresh start, it provides dignity, respect and hope.
$35,036 spent1% of program spendingOur Christmas program empowers caregivers to be heroes by giving them a chance to pick out the gifts for their children. We were joined by 40 community partners to collect more than 7,000 gifts and then set up a "store" where caregivers could come shop. We were able to serve 1500 children. With our Back To School program, we collected and provided backpacks filled with school supplies to over 150 families (500 children).

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2020, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2020, 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 2021 to 2022, from $2.4M to $5.3M (+118%).
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.
Government-grant reliance: 2020 3% · 2022 2% · 2024 1%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 12 funders to 30 funders, grant income rose $133k → $1.4M.
12 of 59 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 56% 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 Inter Parish Ministry Inc’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 59 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
Inter Parish Ministry Inc has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 33% of grant income, and it takes 3 funders to reach half.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 3 funders to its left
59% 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 Inter Parish Ministry Inc.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 22% · 2018 28% · 2019 32% · 2020 27% · 2021 16% · 2022 49% · 2023 40% — growing more concentrated.
“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.
How long its funders stay
66% of Inter Parish Ministry Inc's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 68% give in more than one year at all.
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.
Where its funders are
56% of Inter Parish Ministry Inc's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Of the $2.8M that is directly attributable, 73% of it comes from Ohio funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $3.5M arriving through sponsors registered in 9 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.
