Six are in community partner buildings located in food-insecure communities. The seventh is a mobile pantry unit that serves multiple locations with distributions during evening and weekend hours, and which provides pantry access to people who have jobs or barriers to transportation. The pantries distribute bags of non-perishable food which last a minimum of four days. Fresh produce is distributed, when available, as well as frozen meats. In 2023, CROS pantries distributed food to 123,034 individuals (duplicated); 31% were children; 11% were seniors. In 2023, we had 9,599 individuals seeking food assistance for the first time at our pantries. 1183840 902389 Gleaning and Food RecoveryGleaning is the collection of crops either from farmers' fields that have already been mechanically harvested or from fields where it is not economically profitable to harvest, due to low market prices. Partnerships with local growers who allow access to fields provide fresh produce that is often lacking in the diets of people who are food insecure. CROS's Gleaning Program uses an army of approximately 3,900 volunteers to glean fresh produce that would otherwise go to waste. Partnering with local food banks, the fresh produce is distributed to meal kitchens and food pantries that feed the hungry. 485,608 pounds of produce was recovered in 2023. 582392 241522 The Caring Kitchen The Caring Kitchen is a community-centered meal program that insures hungry people are fed six days of the week. Lunch is served Monday through Friday and bag lunches are distributed on Saturday. Meals are delivered to homebound clients by volunteers who also do health/welfare check-ins. The Caring Kitchen is a food recovery program that collects safe and wholesome food donated from commercial sources to meet the nutritional needs of the hungry. In 2023, we returned to our pre-COVID method of service with congregant meals instead of to-go style service. In 2023, the Caring Kitchen served 57,525 meals. 4767997 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 7 0 1 30 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 13 12 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 FL X X Karen Mills 5612339009 3677 23rd Avenue South B-101 Lake Worth FL 33461 Patti Alexander Treasurer 3.00 X X 0 0 0 Dr Stephen Anderson Director 3.00 X 0 0 0 Joe Black Director 3.00 X 0 0 0 Denise Bleau Director 3.00 X 0 0 0 Dr John Conde President 3.00 X X 0 0 0 Rebecca Dodge Director 3.00 X 0 0 0 Alexander Gamma Director 3.00 X 0 0 0 Rev Dr Aaron Janklow Director 3.00 X 0 0 0 Jack Lansing Director 3.00 X 0 0 0 Deana McCrea Director 3.00 X 0 0 0 Tim Pallesen Secretary 3.00 X X 0 0 0 Carol Rose Director 3.00 X 0 0 0 Felicia Slappy Director 3.00 X 0 0 0 Christine Stiller Director 3.00 X 0 0 0 Ken Treadwell Vice President 3.00 X X 0 0 0 Rev Dionne Hammond Ex-Officio 3.00 X 0 0 0 Ruth Mageria Executive Director 40.00 X 115748 0 11505 115748 0 11505 1 0 0 0 0 153840 59224 215471 3888518 2764891 4317053 48109 48109 9734 0 9734 9734 9734 19938 59224 30186 -10248 -10248 Change in Value-Trust 900099 15493 15493 15493 4380141 0 0 63088 973711 973711 2274832 2274832 127252 105487 11846 9919 867455 738204 83924 45327 22734 18054 3508 1172 91944 76281 10140 5523 68841 59233 5570 4038 29250 25250 4000 4073 4073 6513 6513 3130 1266 146 1718 68333 37418 4945 25970 50451 38343 7980 4128 91907 89025 1996 886 13250 12345 444 461 9648 6897 933 1818 2916 1625 1108 183 104639 102222 1536 881 15792 14167 1033 592 Lease Expenses 114504 106876 4827 2801 Program Supplies 88682 88682 Misc.
