FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A:	HUNGER FREE AMERICA IS A NONPARTISAN, NATIONAL NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION BUILDING THE MOVEMENT TO ENACT THE POLICIES AND PROGRAMS NEEDED TO END DOMESTIC HUNGER AND ENSURE THAT ALL AMERICANS HAVE SUFFICIENT ACCESS TO NUTRITIOUS FOOD. SINCE OUR FOUNDING IN 1983, WE HAVE BEEN AN EFFECTIVE CHAMPION IN THE FIGHT FOR ECONOMIC, RACIAL, AND FOOD JUSTICE. AS A LEADING RESEARCH AND ADVOCACY ORGANIZATION, WE WORK TO IMPLEMENT INNOVATIVE YET PRACTICAL SOLUTIONS TO HUNGER. WE WORK TO ADDRESS THE ROOT CAUSES OF HUNGER AND ENGAGE AMERICANS OF ALL BACKGROUNDS IN THE FIGHT TO ENSURE THAT OUR SOCIETY SUPPLIES LIVING WAGE JOBS AND AN ADEQUATE GOVERNMENT NUTRITION SAFETY NET. WE ALSO SUPPLY DIRECT SERVICE, HELPING AMERICANS ACCESS GOVERNMENTAL AND NON-GOVERNMENTAL SOURCES OF FOOD AND BY BUILDING A NEW GENERATION OF ANTI-HUNGER LEADERS. PROGRAMS: ADVOCACY, RESEARCH, AND POLICY: OUR ADVOCACY TEAM IS A VOICE FOR THE TENS OF MILLIONS OF AMERICANS WHO STRUGGLE AGAINST U.S. HUNGER. ONE OF THE MOST EFFECTIVE AND COURAGEOUS ADVOCACY GROUPS IN THE NATION, WE WORK DIRECTLY WITH ELECTED OFFICIALS ON THE CITY, STATE, AND FEDERAL LEVELS TO ADVANCE POLICIES TO END HUNGER AND PROMOTE ECONOMIC JUSTICE, LIKE THE HOPE ACT, A BILL THAT WILL MAKE IT DRAMATICALLY EASIER FOR LOW-INCOME AMERICANS TO APPLY FOR AND ACCESS PUBLIC BENEFITS. WE ALSO CONDUCT GROUND-BREAKING RESEARCH AND PUBLISH CUTTING-EDGE REPORTS THAT PROPOSE BOLD AND CONCRETE SOLUTIONS TO HUNGER AND POVERTY, SUCH AS RECENT REPORTS DETAILING THE NEED FOR MORE COORDINATION BETWEEN UNEMPLOYMENT, SNAP, AND WIC APPLICATIONS THROUGHOUT THE US AND OUR COMPREHENSIVE, NATIONAL PLAN TO END HUNGER IN AMERICA. AMERICORPS VISTA: OUR AMERICORPS VISTA NATIONAL SERVICE TEAMS ENABLE PARTICIPANTS TO SERVE THE COUNTRY WHILE FIGHTING HUNGER. OUR 2022 COHORT OF YEAR-LONG VISTA MEMBERS SERVED AT 36 SITES IN 18 CITIES THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY. IN 2022, WE ALSO HAD SUMMER VISTA MEMBERS SERVING AT 24 PARTNER ORGANIZATIONS IN 17 STATES. WE HELPED OVER 215,000 INDIVIDUALS RECEIVE SUPPORT SERVICES AND/OR REFERRALS TO ALLEVIATE LONG-TERM HUNGER. ALL OF HUNGER FREE AMERICA'S PROJECTS ARE UNITED BY THE BASIC GOALS OF REDUCING HUNGER, IMPROVING NUTRITION, AND EMPOWERING FAMILIES TO OBTAIN MORE ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITIES. BENEFITS ACCESS: OUR TEAM WORKS TO CONNECT LOW-INCOME NEW YORKERS WITH BENEFITS TO ACCESS FOOD ACROSS ALL FIVE BOROUGHS. OUR STAFF SCREENS FAMILIES AND INDIVIDUALS FOR FEDERAL NUTRITION ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS AND HELPS THEM THROUGH THE APPLICATION AND RECERTIFICATION PROCESS. IN 2022, OUR BENEFITS ACCESS TEAM CONNECTED 5,832 LOW-INCOME NYC HOUSEHOLDS WITH SNAP BENEFITS AND AN ADDITIONAL 1,503 PARTICIPANTS TO THE SPECIAL SUPPLEMENTAL NUTRITION PROGRAM FOR WOMEN, INFANTS, AND CHILDREN (WIC.) CHILD NUTRITION: OUR CHILD NUTRITION PROGRAM WORKS TO ENSURE THAT EVERY CHILD IN AMERICA HAS ACCESS TO SUFFICIENT, NUTRITIOUS FOOD. BY USING OUTREACH AND POLICY WORK TO INCREASE PARTICIPATION IN FREE SUMMER MEALS AND SCHOOL BREAKFASTS, WE CONNECT KIDS WITH THE FOOD THEY NEED IN ORDER TO GROW AND THRIVE. DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC, WE HAVE PLAYED A PARTICULARLY ACTIVE ROLE IN ENSURING THAT GOVERNMENT SUPPLIED ALTERNATIVE SOURCES OF FOOD TO LOW-INCOME CHILDREN NATIONWIDE WHEN SCHOOL MEALS PROGRAMS WERE SHUT DOWN. FOOD ACTION BOARD (FAB): OUR PIONEERING FAB PROGRAM EMPOWERS LOW-INCOME COMMUNITY MEMBERS TO HELP THEM DEVELOP THEIR LEADERSHIP, ADVOCACY, AND COMMUNITY ORGANIZING SKILLS. FOR OVER 13 YEARS, OUR FOOD ACTION BOARD HAS BUILT A COMMUNITY OF OVER 200 LOW-INCOME, IMMIGRANT, AND MAJORITY NON-ENGLISH SPEAKING MEMBERS FROM UNDER-RESOURCED NEIGHBORHOODS THROUGHOUT NEW YORK CITY, TO FIGHT FOR A BETTER FUTURE FOR THEMSELVES AND TO BUILD THE ANTI-HUNGER MOVEMENT IN NEW YORK CITY AND BEYOND. FAB MEMBERS TAKE ON KEY POSITIONS AND LEADERSHIP ROLES IN EFFORTS AT THE CITY, STATE, AND FEDERAL LEVELS OF GOVERNMENT TO PROMOTE POLICIES THAT SUPPORT FOOD SECURITY AND ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY. STRATEGIC VOLUNTEERISM PROGRAM: OUR GROUND-BREAKING ENDING HUNGER THROUGH STRATEGIC VOLUNTEERISM INITIATIVE WORKS TO MOVE PEOPLE FROM ACCEPTING HUNGER TO ENDING IT; FROM PERPETUATING SHORT-TERM CHARITY TO BEING ACTIVE PARTICIPANTS IN A BROAD-BASED MOVEMENT TO ENSURE ALL PEOPLE IN THE US HAVE ACCESS TO SUFFICIENT, AFFORDABLE AND NUTRITIOUS FOOD. BY USING THE TALENTS AND PASSIONS OF INDIVIDUALS AND GROUPS WITH CAPACITY BUILDING VOLUNTEERISM, WE MAXIMIZE THE IMPACT FOR BOTH THE VOLUNTEER AND THE ANTI-HUNGER ORGANIZATION. THROUGH OUR STRATEGIC VOLUNTEERISM HUB PARTNERSHIP, THE TEAM OFFERS INNOVATIVE STRATEGIES, TOOLS, AND TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE TO ANTI-HUNGER ORGANIZATIONS, SUPPORTING THEIR ABILITY TO ENGAGE MOTIVATED VOLUNTEERS IN MISSION EXPANDING WORK. WHILE THE HEALTH PANDEMIC IMPACTED MANY FACETS OF OUR WORK, THE STRATEGIC VOLUNTEERISM TEAM HELPED BOTH HFA AND OTHER NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS REMAIN NIMBLE IN THEIR VOLUNTEER RECRUITMENT AND ENGAGEMENT. VIRTUAL VOLUNTEERS WERE ABLE TO CONTINUE TO LEND THEIR TALENTS AND COMMITMENT TO HELP SUPPORT VITAL WORK FOR OUR BENEFITS ACCESS, USDA HUNGER HOTLINE, DATA, AND ADVOCACY AND RESEARCH TEAMS, AS WELL AS SEVERAL HUB PARTNERS. THE TEAM ALSO COMPILED SAFETY RESOURCES AND PROTOCOLS IN ENGAGING VOLUNTEERS AND HELPED CONNECT VOLUNTEERS TO COMMUNITY FACING OPPORTUNITIES WHEN POSSIBLE. DURING 2022, OVER 1,500 VOLUNTEERS SERVED OVER 19,000 COMMUNITY SERVICE HOURS FOR BOTH HUNGER FREE AMERICA AND HUB PARTNERS. USDA CLEARINGHOUSE: OUR USDA NATIONAL HUNGER HOTLINE IS A RESOURCE FOR INDIVIDUALS AND FAMILIES SEEKING INFORMATION ON HOW TO OBTAIN EMERGENCY FOOD. THE HOTLINE STAFF CONNECTS CALLERS WITH EMERGENCY FOOD PROVIDERS IN THEIR COMMUNITY, GOVERNMENT ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS SUCH AS SNAP, WIC AND SUMMER MEALS, AND VARIETY OF OTHER SOCIAL SERVICES. IN 2022, WE ENABLED OVER 29,000 INDIVIDUALS AND FAMILIES TO ACCESS NONPROFIT AND GOVERNMENT FOOD RESOURCES. HFA HAS ALSO CREATED A NATIONAL DATABASE OF FOOD PROGRAMS TO FURTHER ASSIST CALLERS. HFA'S NATIONAL DATABASE OF FOOD PROGRAMS HELPS CONNECT THOSE IN NEED ACROSS THE COUNTRY WITH BOTH EMERGENCY FOOD SITES LIKE PANTRIES AND SOUP KITCHENS AS WELL AS PUBLIC BENEFIT PROGRAMS LIKE SNAP AND WIC. THE DATABASE INCLUDES HOURS OF OPERATION ALONG WITH DETAILED MAPS AND TRAVEL DIRECTIONS TO EACH SITE. COVID-19 VACCINE ACCESS: FOOD INSECURE NEIGHBORHOODS ARE ALSO UNDER-VACCINATED NEIGHBORHOODS. MALNUTRITION INCREASES THE LIKELIHOOD OF INFECTION WHICH IS WHY HUNGER FREE AMERICA IS PROMOTING, IN ADDITION TO FOOD PROGRAMS, THE COVID-19 VACCINE. THE HEALTH AND SAFETY OF OUR FAMILIES AND COMMUNITIES DEPEND ON A FULLY VACCINATED POPULATION. IN 2021, HUNGER FREE AMERICA, WHICH WORKS TO ENROLL/RECERTIFY LOW-INCOME INDIVIDUALS AND FAMILIES IN SNAP AND WIC, LAUNCHED A PROGRAM TO CONDUCT COVID-19 VACCINE OUTREACH THROUGHOUT NEW YORK CITY. AS PART OF THIS PUBLIC HEALTH INITIATIVE, HUNGER FREE AMERICA HAS CREATED A TEAM OF PART-TIME ORGANIZERS WHO CONDUCT OUTREACH VIRTUALLY AND IN-PERSON TO DELIVER INFORMATION ABOUT VITAL FOOD RESOURCES (SNAP/ WIC) AND THE COVID-19 VACCINE. THIS COMMUNITY-BASED WORKFORCE ENGAGES WITH LOCAL COMMUNITIES TO BUILD VACCINE CONFIDENCE AND BOLSTER COVID-19 VACCINATIONS IN UNDERSERVED COMMUNITIES. IN ADDITION TO THIS COMMUNITY-BASED WORKFORCE, HUNGER FREE AMERICA HAS ALSO CREATED ITS OWN VACCINE HOTLINE SERVICE TO HELP COMMUNITY MEMBERS (1) BOOK AN APPOINTMENT, (2) FIND A TESTING SITE, (3) FIND THEIR VACCINATION RECORD, AND (4) RETRIEVE AT-HOME TESTING KITS. OUR VACCINE OUTREACH ORGANIZERS CONDUCTED OVER 1,400 COMMUNITY EVENTS FROM SEPTEMBER 2021 TO DECEMBER 2022 ACROSS THE FIVE BOROUGHS IN NEW YORK CITY. THEY CONDUCTED COMMUNITY OUTREACH AT LOCAL GREEN MARKETS, BACK-TO-SCHOOL EVENTS, STREET FAIRS, AND OTHER COMMUNITY EVENTS. OUR VACCINE HOTLINE RECEIVED A TOTAL OF 7,618 CALLS, AND WE DISTRIBUTED APPROXIMATELY 4,000 COVID-19 HOME TESTING KITS TO THE PUBLIC.
