We strive to do this while showing love, compassion and respect to everyone. false false 415351 298918 0 From July 1, 2022 to June 30, 2023, Loving Food Resources (LFR) continued to fulfill its mission of providing food, health and personal care items to its clients. Client numbers remained steady thanks to partnerships with Western North Carolina AIDS Project (WNCAP), Western North Carolina Community Health Services (WNCCHS), Care Partners Hospice, Four Seasons Hospice, and personal physicians who helped LFR reach more clients in the 18 counties of Western North Carolina. We continued to offer one-time emergency boxes to those with food insecurities. Unquestionably, LFR had a significant effect on the lives of many clients, individuals, and families during this period of time. The following are statistics that represent the impact LFR had in the community - During this period, LFR recorded 3,175 client visits -86.4 tons of food was distributed. -LFR also provided an additional 17.6 tons of fresh produce -127 emergency food boxes were distributed -4,000 pounds of pet food was given to clients -The Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP) distributed 8.7 tons of food -Total food distributed was 95.1 tons, which is equivalent to nine (9) tractor trailer loads Additionally: -The Street Pantry received 2,080 visits -The Community Meal served 2,536 people -With grants from the last two years, LFR was able to upgrade the HVAC system and purchase a 2023 Ford box truck. In 2022, the LFR box truck became unusable. We purchased an interim box truck which allowed us to continue to transport large amounts of food. Three grant awards allowed us to purchase a much-needed new box truck. Also, the LFR HVAC system was basically non-functional making it most uncomfortable for volunteers and staff to work during the summer and winter. A Buncombe County grant made it possible to install a new HVAC system, which reduced our natural gas bill by 74%. During this period, LFR continued to reach out to the community by serving free meals each Thursday. In collaboration with Kenilworth Presbyerian Church, and the Food Connection, this year LFR served 2,356 people. The goal of the Food connection is to ease hunger, reduce waste, and support the local food industry by redistributing food from local chefs to serve those in need. 415351 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false true false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false true 1 0 3 true false false false false false false false false false false false false X 9 9 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true false false false NC X Marie Hall 8286067008 277 Lynn Cove Rd Asheville NC 28804 Brent Wyatt Executive Director 40.00 X 62140 0 0 Jeff Scoltock President 0.25 X X 0 0 0 Dale England Vice-President 1.25 X X 0 0 0 Linda Laufer Secretary 1.25 X X 0 0 0 Geri Spangler Treasurer 0.50 X X 0 0 0 Mark Holmes Board Member 0.25 X 0 0 0 Emily Fox Board Member 0.25 X 0 0 0 Joe Elliott Board Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Chris Stroup Board Member 0.25 X 0 0 0 Allen Brasington Board Member 0.50 X 0 0 0 62140 0 0 false false false 5214 572441 239771 577655 12 0 12 27612 5214 7913 19699 0 19699 Gas Reimbursement 900099 624 624 0 0 Sales Tax Reimbursement 900099 2187 0 0 2187 2811 600177 624 0 21898 298918 298918 64736 32368 19421 12947 12941 11953 988 0 5942 3565 1486 891 4260 0 4260 0 4700 360 2190 2150 1947 973 487 487 7050 5575 1171 304 1184 1066 118 0 25974 23377 2597 0 7668 7668 0 0 23966 21569 2397 0 3470 0 3470 0 Staff Appreciation 1518 911 379 228 Dues & Subscriptions 2806 2525 281 0 Pantry Supplies 1934 1934 0 0 Executive Director Expenses 2692 2423 269 0 177 166 11 0 471883 415351 39525 17007 165494 142673 96356 121368 2757 2757 39496 35584 336737 83776 122213 252961 2122 428438 555343 4855 3466 4855 3466 X 423583 514774 37103 423583 551877 428438 555343 128294 X false false false X 0 400428 410001 679734 537148 577655 2604966 0 0 400428 410001 679734 537148 577655 2604966 0 2604966 16 10 4 10 12 52 0 0 0 0 1539 2811 4350 2609368 90271 0.99830 0.99930 X 0 0 0 Pt II Ln 10 Other Income Part II, Line 10 Description: Other Income 2018: 0. 2019: 0. 2020: 0. 2021: 1539. 2022: 2811.
