In response, they provided meal bags each Friday and the organization was born. Since then, the organization has worked tirelessly to remove the barriers to food access that so many children face. Every Meal has provided over 11.2 million meals to thousands of children who are living in food insecurity.Every Meal (formerly The Sheridan Story) works to fight child hunger in Minnesota by filling the gaps that children face during weekends, summers, and extended breaks when they are not in school to access meal programs. Through a network of over 791 partner organizations, Every Meal provides thousands of children with the food they need to learn and grow.A differentiator of Every Meal is the quality of food provided. Over 99% of our food is purchased from over 23 local, national, and global vendors. Food items and brands are determined through guidance from on-staff registered dieticians who analyze nutritional contents and taste to ensure that the food is nutritious, delicious, and relevant.Investing in technology and leveraging purchases at scale has allowed Every Meal to provide a greater variety of high-quality food while reducing costs. These efforts have resulted in a wider range of food options available to children including regionally specific beans, specialized grains and flours, and favorable vegetables and fruits for various cultural cooking needs. Regular taste testing, nutrition analysis, and feedback from families helps ensure children receive food that is nutritious, delicious, and culturally and situationally relevant.Every Meal revamped distribution methodology to enhance school support post-COVID-19. Program staff proactively trained partners on new more effective processes, and utilized emails, calls, and visits to ensure smooth food delivery to children while monitoring inventory.To combat inflation and supply chain disruptions, Every Meal stabilized and streamlined inventory, purchasing, and demand forecasting. This effort maintained consistent food costs while effectively addressing the high demand in fall 2022.Other innovative programs, like the Grow and Give program have continued. Produce grown in Every Meal Garden was combined with produce donated by individuals and Grow and Give partner organizations to be distributed weekly to children in Minnesota throughout the summer months. 4742278 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 13 0 1 52 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 16 15 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 MN X X X Rob Williams 6125684003 2723 Patton Road Roseville MN 55113 Bob Peterson Chair 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Jenna Soule Vice-Chair 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Ranjit Ahluwalia Treasurer 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Rachel Riensche Secretary 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Brandon Jones Board Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Helene Clark Board Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Ryan Beach Board Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Scott Tonneson Board Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Irfan Chaudhry Board Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Woody Kingman Board Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Christina Gonzalez Board Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Jo Saxton Board Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Rob Williams President & Founder 50.00 X X 165116 0 11897 Stephaniel Bach Board Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Latanay Daniels Board Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Bob Thomas Board Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Nate Youngblood Vice President 50.00 X 130835 0 10992 Lindsey Torkilsen Director of Programs 50.00 X 109887 0 5554 405838 0 28443 4 0 1 0 0 9712115 878687 9712115 Other Revenue 900099 468052 468052 Food Income 900099 275190 275190 Merchandise Income 900099 2146 2146 Shipping and Handling 900099 1938 1938 747326 22538 22538 10481979 747326 0 22538 2722866 2722866 179550 53865 17955 107730 2578939 571412 341907 1665620 86663 25999 8666 51998 212205 177261 33373 1571 210711 131664 28040 51007 43600 43600 206643 30705 55771 120167 19052 19052 63261 22336 7839 33086 89057 44460 35705 8892 463683 430481 17056 16146 4388 613 2950 825 11590 5603 5987 255468 255468 9216 9216 Miscellaneous 320429 159127 76012 85290 Transportation 82224 79755 247 2222 Staff training 48298 19871 21015 7412 Bank fees 35251 35251 12417 10792 1190 435 7655511 4742278 741780 2171453 412768 1822195 301165 867947 1530543 126159 60273 1388690 1080205 39104 286796 1128837 802096 722552 326741 501874 255564 8763 503819 3501075 6734083 75294 214911 41416 179 209518 517678 326228 732768 X 2390292 2299798 784555 3701517 3174847 6001315 3501075 6734083 2826468 0 X X 0 1 X 1 0 X 2422180 7257047 5769599 6198378 9712115 31359319 2422180 7257047 5769599 6198378 9712115 31359319 3277914 28081405 107 329 142 3034 22538 26150 6265 15015 39841 1502 62623 31448092 949124 0.89290 0.88910 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 1128837 802096 326741 326741 Security Deposits 8763 Right of Use asset 495056 503819 Capital lease obligations 358949 Operating lease obligations 158729 517678 10494631 12652 12652 10481979 0 10481979 7668163 12652 12652 7655511 0 7655511 0 Food Assistance 423653 2722866 FMV Every Meal supports local children by filling the food gaps children face during weekends, summers, and extended breaks when they are not in school to access the meal programs. 1,692,266 meals were available free to children at over 500 locations this fiscal year.

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11b The 990 is reviewed by management and the Finance and Audit Committees and then is provided to all board members for approval prior to filing. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12c The Organization monitored compliance with the conflict of interest policy by reviewing, contemporaneously, all potential conflicts of interest at governance meetings and staff daily activities and applying the policy to address any actual conflicts of interest that are identified. As Section 6.2 of this policy states, staff conflicts of interest are disclosed to the President, "(or if she or he is the one with the conflict, then to the Board Chair), who shall bring the matter to the attention of the Board. Disclosure involving directors should be made to the Board Chair, (or if she or he is the one with the conflict, then to the Board Treasurer) who shall bring these matters to the board. Section 6.3 continues "the board shall determine whether a conflict exists and in the case of an existing conflict, whether the contemplated transaction may be authorized as just, fair, and reasonable to Every Meal." As Section 2 of this policy states, this policy applies not only to directors and officers, but to all employees who can influence the actions of Every Meal. For example, this would include all who make purchasing decisions, all persons who might be described as 'management personnel, and anyone who has proprietary information concerning Every Meal." In practice, the policy applies to all members of the Board of Directors and typically applies to staff that are manager level and above. Restrictions imposed on a person with a conflict are identified in Section 6.1 - include fully disclosing the conflict of interest and is excluded from the discussion and approval of such transaction. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15a Salary data is obtained from the Minnesota Council of Nonprofits' Minnesota salary and benefits survey. Salary data is compared with averages based on both organization's size and sector. Data is then evaluated against salary quartiles while considering the President's experience. The last time this process was undertaken was July 2022. Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19 The Bylaws and Conflict of Interest policy are available upon request. The financial statements and Articles of Incorporation are available on the Organization's website or upon request. Form 990, Part XII, Line 2c: The process has not changed from the prior year.
