| FORM 990 - ORGANIZATION'S MISSION | IN 2024, THE LIVINGSTON FOOD RESOURCE CENTER (LFRC) CONTINUED ITS MISSION OF ADDRESSING FOOD INSECURITY AND PROMOTING COMMUNITY WELL-BEING ACROSS PARK COUNTY. THROUGH INNOVATIVE PROGRAMS, PARTNERSHIPS WITH LOCAL PRODUCERS, AND ADAPTING TO A STEADILY INCREASING NEED, WE DEEPENED OUR IMPACT IN THE COMMUNITY, SERVING MORE FAMILIES AND EXPANDING ACCESS TO NUTRITIOUS FOOD. |
| FORM 990, PAGE 1, PART I, LINE 6 | VOLUNTEERS WORK IN THE FOOD PANTRY ASSISTING CLIENTS, AS WELL AS WORK WITH COMMUNITY PROGRAMS SUCH AS IN FOOD PREPARATION, PACKAGING AND DELIVERY. |
| FORM 990, PAGE 2, PART III, LINE 4A | FOOD PANTRY PROGRAMS: IN 2024, THROUGH OUR FOUR LARGEST PROGRAMS-OUR SELF-SELECT, DIGNITY-FORWARD FOOD PANTRY, MOBILE PANTRIES, SENIOR COMMODITIES, AND THE PANTRY SUPPER CLUB-THE LIVINGSTON FOOD RESOURCE CENTER SERVED AN AVERAGE OF 479 HOUSEHOLDS PER MONTH. THIS CONTINUES A STEADY RISE FROM 397 HOUSEHOLDS PER MONTH IN 2023, 301 IN 2022, AND 210 IN 2021, ILLUSTRATING BOTH INCREASED COMMUNITY NEED AND OUR GROWING CAPACITY TO MEET IT. OF THE HOUSEHOLDS THAT ACCESSED OUR SERVICES LAST YEAR, 35% WERE FIRST-TIME USERS. WHEN ASKED WHAT BROUGHT THEM TO THE PANTRY, CLIENTS CITED HOUSING COSTS, RISING UTILITY BILLS, AND THE LIMITATIONS OF FIXED INCOMES-A CLEAR SIGNAL THAT FAMILIES AND INDIVIDUALS ARE TURNING TO US TO AVOID CHOOSING BETWEEN PAYING THEIR BILLS AND PUTTING FOOD ON THE TABLE. ACROSS PARK COUNTY, WE SERVED A TOTAL OF 1,121 UNIQUE HOUSEHOLDS AND 2,260 INDIVIDUALS IN 2024. THAT REPRESENTS: 12% OF PARK COUNTY RESIDENTS, 17% OF LIVINGSTON, 24% OF EMIGRANT, AND JUST UNDER 10% OF CLYDE PARK AND SHIELDS VALLEY OUR WORK IS POWERED BY OUR COMMUNITY. IN 2024, 186 DEDICATED VOLUNTEERS GAVE 4,430 HOURS OF THEIR TIME-AN INCREDIBLE DEMONSTRATION OF OUR COMMITMENT TO MULTIPLYING THE IMPACT OF EVERY DONOR DOLLAR THROUGH HANDS-ON SERVICE. THE LFRC PANTRY OFFERS AN EQUITY-FORWARD, COMPASSIONATE SHOPPING EXPERIENCE, EMPOWERING CLIENTS TO CHOOSE FROM A VARIETY OF SCRATCH-MADE FROZEN MEALS, NUTRITIOUS READY-TO-EAT FOODS, AND MINIMALLY PROCESSED SHELF-STABLE ITEMS. THIS APPROACH SUPPORTS AUTONOMY AND PROMOTES WELL-BEING THROUGH THOUGHTFUL, NOURISHING CHOICES. IN 2024, THE FOOD PANTRY SAW 9,159 TOTAL VISITS DURING 416 OPEN HOURS, AND DISTRIBUTED 270,408 POUNDS OF FOOD, UNDERSCORING OUR COMMITMENT TO ACCESS, DIGNITY, AND HEALTH. LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY BAKERY RETAIL CLOSURE IN OCTOBER 2024, LFRC MADE THE DIFFICULT DECISION TO CLOSE THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY BAKERY RETAIL BUSINESS. WHILE WELL-LOVED, THE BAKERY WAS NOT FINANCIALLY SUSTAINABLE AND DID NOT GENERATE THE REVENUE NEEDED TO SUPPORT OUR PROGRAMS. THE SPACE CONTINUES TO FULFILL ITS MISSION BY SUPPORTING KAMUT BREAD PRODUCTION AND OFFERING COMMERCIAL KITCHEN ACCESS TO LOCAL FOOD BUSINESSES. FINANCIAL SUSTAINABILITY IN 2024, THE LIVINGSTON FOOD RESOURCE CENTER FACED SIGNIFICANT FINANCIAL LOSSES, DRIVEN BY A SHARP RISE IN DEMAND FOR FOOD ASSISTANCE AND INCREASED OPERATING COSTS. AS A RURAL FOOD PANTRY, OVER 60% OF THE FOOD WE DISTRIBUTE MUST BE PURCHASED-COMPARED TO JUST 11% IN A NEIGHBORING URBAN PANTRY. AS DEMAND CONTINUES TO GROW, WE ANTICIPATE NEEDING TO PURCHASE MORE FOOD THAN EVER BEFORE, BUT AVAILABLE RESOURCES MAY NOT KEEP PACE. IN RESPONSE, LFRC HAS TAKEN DIFFICULT BUT NECESSARY STEPS-INCLUDING THE CLOSURE OF THE BAKERY AND A REDUCTION IN STAFF-TO SAFEGUARD OUR CORE PROGRAMS. THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR AND THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS ARE CLOSELY MONITORING FINANCIAL HEALTH, GUIDED BY CLEAR THRESHOLDS AND CONTINGENCY PLANS THAT PRIORITIZE LONG-TERM SUSTAINABILITY AND MISSION IMPACT. THOUGH THIS IS A CHALLENGING MOMENT, WE REMAIN COMMITTED TO SERVING OUR COMMUNITY WITH CARE, RESILIENCE, AND INTEGRITY. |
| FORM 990, PAGE 2, PART III, LINE 4B | COMMUNITY PROGRAMS: MOBILE PANTRY: OUR MOBILE PANTRY PROGRAM EXTENDS NUTRITIONAL SUPPORT TO COMMUNITY MEMBERS WHO CANNOT ACCESS THE MAIN PANTRY DUE TO LIMITED TRANSPORTATION, THE RISING COST OF GAS, OR SCHEDULING CONFLICTS. IN 2024, THE PROGRAM OPERATED ONCE A MONTH AT THREE LOCATIONS-CLYDE PARK, WILSALL, AND EMIGRANT-AND RECORDED 819 TOTAL VISITS ACROSS 36 EVENTS. BY BRINGING FOOD DIRECTLY TO WHERE PEOPLE LIVE, THE MOBILE PANTRY ENSURES CONSISTENT, LOCAL ACCESS TO NUTRITIOUS FOOD FOR SOME OF OUR MOST RURAL AND UNDERSERVED NEIGHBORS. PANTRY SUPPER CLUB: THIS PROGRAM PROVIDES NUTRITIOUS, SCRATCH-MADE DINNERS FIVE NIGHTS A WEEK TO LOW-INCOME AND FIXED-INCOME INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE UNABLE TO PREPARE ADEQUATE MEALS FOR THEMSELVES. IN 2024, 12,315 MEALS WERE PREPARED AND DELIVERED. OF THOSE SERVED, 77% WERE SENIORS, MANY OF WHOM RELY ON THESE MEALS AS THEIR PRIMARY SOURCE OF NOURISHMENT. ONE CLIENT SHARED, "I AM SO THANKFUL FOR THESE MEALS. I WASN'T GETTING ENOUGH FOOD." COUNTY-WIDE REACH: THROUGH THE MOBILE PANTRY AND PANTRY SUPPER CLUB, WE REACHED OUR MOST ISOLATED NEIGHBORS-DRIVING 3,657 MILES IN PARADISE VALLEY AND 694 MILES IN SHIELDS VALLEY TO DELIVER NOT ONLY FOOD, BUT ALSO CONNECTION. THESE PROGRAMS OFFER MORE THAN NOURISHMENT; THEY OFFER PRESENCE. WHEN OUR CLIENTS ARE IN CRISIS, WE ARE OFTEN ONE OF THE FIRST CALLS THEY MAKE-A TESTAMENT TO THE DEEP TRUST WE'VE BUILT IN COMMUNITIES ACROSS PARK COUNTY. MENTAL HEALTH AND BENEFITS NAVIGATION: THE COUNSELING PROGRAM, A FLAGSHIP PROGRAM UNIQUE TO LFRC, REFLECTS OUR COMMITMENT TO WALKING ALONGSIDE CLIENTS-NOT JUST FEEDING THEM. IN 2024, WE OFFERED 325 COUNSELING SESSIONS AND HELPED 145 HOUSEHOLDS APPLY FOR SNAP BENEFITS. THROUGH A NEW PARTNERSHIP WITH MONTANA LEGAL SERVICES ASSOCIATION, A LEGAL ADVOCATE NOW VISITS MONTHLY TO ASSIST CLIENTS WITH PUBLIC BENEFITS AND OTHER CRITICAL NEEDS. THIS HOLISTIC SUPPORT STRENGTHENS OUR COMMUNITY FAR BEYOND THE PANTRY SHELVES. FARMERS MARKET TENT: IN 2024, OUR FARMERS MARKET PROGRAM CONNECTED 188 CLIENTS WITH LOCAL FARMERS, SUPPORTING BOTH NUTRITION ACCESS AND OUR LOCAL FOOD ECONOMY. THE LFRC PRODUCE TENT SAW 653 TOTAL VISITS, HELPING CLIENTS BRING HOME FRESH, SEASONAL PRODUCE. SENIOR COMMODITIES: IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE MONTANA DPHHS, WE DISTRIBUTED 9,553 POUNDS OF FRESH SUPPLEMENTAL NUTRITION TO SENIORS THROUGH THE SENIOR COMMODITIES PROGRAM. DESIGNED FOR THOSE OVER 60 LIVING BELOW 130% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL, THIS PROGRAM OFFERS KAMUT BREAD. THANKSGIVING MEAL KITS: WE DISTRIBUTED 383 SCRATCH-MADE THANKSGIVING MEAL KITS, PREPARED IN OUR COMMUNITY KITCHEN. EACH KIT INCLUDED GREEN BEAN CASSEROLE, STUFFING, PUMPKIN BARS, KAMUT DINNER ROLLS, CRANBERRY SAUCE, AND GRAVY-ENSURING FAMILIES COULD ENJOY A NOURISHING HOLIDAY MEAL MADE WITH CARE. BACKPACK BUDDIES: BECAUSE HUNGER DOESN'T STOP WHEN SCHOOL DOES, OUR BACKPACK BUDDIES PROGRAM PROVIDED 8,294 FOOD BAGS ACROSS FOUR SCHOOLS, OFFERING NUTRITIOUS, EASY-TO-PREPARE MEALS FOR STUDENTS OVER THE WEEKEND. SATELLITE SCHOOL PANTRIES: LAUNCHED IN SPRING 2024, OUR SATELLITE SCHOOL PANTRIES AT PARK HIGH SCHOOL AND SLEEPING GIANT MIDDLE SCHOOL QUICKLY BECAME ESSENTIAL DAILY RESOURCES. PARK HIGH SAW 2,198 STUDENT VISITS AND SGMS SAW 648 VISITS, OFFERING CONSISTENT SUPPORT FOR OLDER STUDENTS WHO MAY NOT BENEFIT FROM WEEKEND-ONLY FOOD PROGRAMS. SUMMER LUNCH: THROUGH THREE SUMMER LUNCH SITES, LFRC SERVED 2,210 MEALS, ENSURING KIDS HAD ACCESS TO BALANCED, NUTRITIOUS FOOD EVEN WHEN SCHOOL WAS OUT. KAMUT FOR COMMUNITY BREAD: IN 2024, WE BAKED 10,485 LOAVES OF WHOLE-GRAIN BREAD FOR LOCAL SCHOOLS, PANTRIES, AND MEAL PROGRAMS. THIS YEAR, WE ALSO BEGAN SOURCING KAMUT FROM THE CHIPPEWA CREE AT ROCKY BOY RESERVATION, SUPPORTING INDIGENOUS AGRICULTURE AND DEEPENING LOCAL PARTNERSHIPS. |
