Programs
St. Joseph's offers four food assistance programs that address critical and immediate needs of the community. With the completion of our new food pantry building in january 2024, we have transitioned to an individual choice food pantry model. We currently serve 500+ households each month. Each bag will feed a family of four for five days. The soup kitchen serves meals to 150-200 guests each saturday. The daily bread program provides about 400 sandwiches and other food items six days a week, 52 weeks a year. St. Joseph's also works in partnership with the community food bank of new jersey as a distribution site. 150-300 households receive produce, meat, dairy and other food items on the 3rd and 4th tuesday of each month. Extra distributions take place on the 3rd saturday of each month and a farmers market distribution occurs on the last friday of the month. In total, the agency provides over 850,000 meals per year.

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.
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 $2.3M to $3.5M (+50%).
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: 2022 3% · 2025 7%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
96% of ST JOSEPH SOCIAL SERVICE CENTER’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (81% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 3 of the last 9 reported years ran a deficit.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 5 funders 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 ST JOSEPH SOCIAL SERVICE CENTER.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 56% · 2018 38% · 2019 20% · 2020 16% · 2021 67% · 2022 15% · 2023 10% — diversifying over time.
