01What it does

What Youth Full Maine does

Mission

Youth Full Maine is a direct community partner of good shepard food bank. We provide logistical support to schools that GSFB does not have the staffing and/or funding capacity to serve directly, and full program support to schools that are not eligible for GSFB reduced or free food donations. We help GSFB eligible schools acorss York County.

As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.

Program

  1. Logistical support, including placing orders with GSFB for food, picking up the food from GSFB warehouses, and delivering it to participating schools. Some communities in Maine have already established their own food pantry program in their schools. To those communities we are available to assist those programs as well in sourcing food from local farms and gardeners, grocery stores, markets and restaurants., and we provide logistical support for food pickup and delivery. We are a source of replication for other communities and schools throughout Maine. In addition to managing school food pantries, Youth Full Maine conducts community wide free food distributions for anyone in need in several northern York County communities, providing dry goods, meats and dairy products sourced from the GSFB, local food stores and local farms. People self-select the items they need to take home or are delivering to households, or their cars are loaded with pre-filled bags/boxes of food. YFM also provides culturally important foods for asylum seeking families temporarily housed in York County.

The program described on its FY2024 Form 990.

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. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.

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.

Who funds it, year by year

2020 → 2023: the base broadened from 7 funders to 8 funders, grant income rose $77k → $114k.

1 of 16 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 9% 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 Youth Full Maine’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

Youth Full Maine has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 27% 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

33% 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 Youth Full Maine.

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.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $58k arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state 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.
