What La Pine Community Kitchen does
Mission
LPCK operates three core programs at one site: meal service, grocery item distribution, and clothing and hygiene support, all provided free of charge and without restrictions. We offer food boxes twice weekly, serve nutritious lunches five days a week, and distribute clothing and essential hygiene items two days a week.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
La Pine Community Kitchen provides clothing in a welcoming and respectful manner. We gave out over 12,000 articles of clothing plus personal hygiene supplies. This included but not limited to coats, shoes, boots, tarps, tents and blankets. The hygiene items included soaps, shampoos, razors, toothbrushes and paste. Narcan nasal spray was also available on request.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2019, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2019, 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.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2020 to 2021, from $411k to $558k (+36%).
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: 2019 2% · 2020 5% · 2021 0% · 2022 10% · 2023 1% · 2024 0% · 2025 11%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
100% of LA PINE COMMUNITY KITCHEN’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (94% for the typical peer).

The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.
Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 6 funders to 11 funders, grant income rose $55k → $119k.
2 of 25 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 LA PINE COMMUNITY KITCHEN’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
LA PINE COMMUNITY KITCHEN has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 18% of grant income, and it takes 5 funders to reach half.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 5 funders to its left
46% 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 LA PINE COMMUNITY KITCHEN.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 36% · 2018 67% · 2019 30% · 2020 18% · 2021 17% · 2022 24% · 2023 24% — diversifying over time.
“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
56% of LA PINE COMMUNITY KITCHEN's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 72% 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
88% of LA PINE COMMUNITY KITCHEN's grant income comes from Oregon funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $163k 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.
