What Thess Bar does
Mission
To nourish bodies and souls igniting compassion so the poor can flourish. Thess Bar is crafted to nourish lives through balanced nutrition hope and community renewing the mind body and spirit.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990-EZ.
Program
Thess Bar provides nutrition and messages of hope to poor and unhoused populations through our nutrition bar. Each bar includes a QR code linking to local faith-based and community resources extending support beyond food. We distribute bars at cost below market value to nonprofit humanitarian organizations serving disadvantaged communities as well as for natural disaster relief including the San Diego floods. For organizations unable to cover costs Thess Bar donated product directly ensuring that vulnerable individuals received nourishment for both body and spirit.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2024, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2024, 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 2024 to 2025, from $266k to $281k (+5%).
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.
100% of Thess Bar’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (100% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 0 of the last 2 reported years ran a deficit.
