WITH OUR FIRST TRUCK BETSY WE ARE OUT IN THE COMMUNITY EVERY WEEK OFFERING COMPLETE HOT, TASTY AND NUTRITIOUS MEALS TO THOSE WHO NEED IT MOST. WITH THE TRUCK WE ARE ABLE TO MOVE THROUGHOUT ORANGE COUNTY INTO COMMUNITIES THAT NEED OUR SUPPORT MOST. IN 2016 THIS PROGRAM TOOK US TO A VARIETY OF PLACES INCLUDING REGULAR WEEKLY STOPS IN SANTA ANA & HUNTINGTON BEACH. AS WELL WE HAVE FED PEOPLE IN NEED IN OTHER CITIES INCLUDING ANAHEIM, GARDEN GROVE, WESTMINSTER, ORANGE AND STANTON. WITH A 30 YEAR OLD TRUCK AND ALL OF HER LIMITATION, WE ARE CURRENTLY WORKING ON PROCURING OUR SECOND TRUCK SO THAT WE ARE ABLE TO INCREASE OUR IMPACT. IN 2016 WE SERVED 8016 MEALS TO FAMILIES AND INDIVIDUALS IN NEED. THAT IS AN INCREASE OF ALMOST 3000 MEALS OVER THE PREVIOUS YEAR. AS WE LOOK FORWARD TO 2017 WE ARE LOOKING TO BE VERY STRATEGIC IN OUR FEEDINGS IN ORDER TO MAXIMIZE OUR IMPACT. THAT INCLUDES TIGHTENING OUR RADIUS OF WHERE WE TRAVEL TO TO LIMIT THE WEAR AND TEAR ON THE TRUCK AS WELL AS ENSURE THAT WE HIT OUR SERVICE LIMITS WITH EVERY TRIP WE TAKE. FINALLY, WHILE WE KEEP SEPERATE FIGURES FOR OUR RECOVERED FOOD PROGRAM, LISTED BELOW MANY OF THOSE NUMBERS ARE REACHED THROUGH THE FOOD TRUCK PROGRAM. NOT ONLY DO WE GO OUT WITH A HOT MEAL SERVED DIRECTLY TO OUR GUESTS, WE ALSO SEND THEM HOME WITH MEALS FOR THE FOLLOWING DAY OR DAYS. 223 RECOVERED FOOD PROGRAM: WE LAUCHED THE SECOND OF OUR "TRIO OF SERVICES" IN JUNE OF 2016. WITH THIS PROGRAM WE WORK TO SUPPORT OTHER NONPROFIT AND HUMANITARIAN AGENCIES BY PROVIDING THEM WITH THE TASTY AND NUTRITIOUS MEALS NEEDED TO SUPPORT THEIR CLIENTS AND GUESTS. THOSE AGENCIES INCLUDE FOOD FINDERS, SOUTH COUNTY OUTREACH, NEWSONG CHURCH, LIVING WATERS CHRISTIAN FELLOWSHIP, STAND UP FOR KIDS, AMERICAN FAMILY HOUSING, THE ORANGE COUNTY RESCUE MISSION AND OTHERS. BY WORKING CLOSELY WITH LA SPECIALTY PRODUCE COMPANY AND THEIR CHEFS TO END HUNGER PROGRAM WE ARE ABLE TO PROCESS AND REPOURPOSE THE OVER PREPARED FOOD ITEMS THAT THEY HAVE RECOVERED FROM LOCAL HOTELS AND RESTAURANTS. WITH A LITTLE CULINARY SKILL AND EFFORT WE ARE ABLE TO TURN THESE ITEMS INTO TASTY AND NUTRITIOUS MEALS. WITH THIS PROGRAM WE ARE ALSO ABLE TO SUPPORT OUR FOOD TRUCK FEEDING PROGRAM WITH SOME OF THE FOOD ITEMS NEEDED TO SERVE DINNER BUT MORE IMPORTANLY WITH PACKAGED MEALS TO HAND OUT THROUGH THE TRUCK, SENDING OUR GUESTS HOME WITH A MEAL FOR THE NEXT DAY. IN THE SEVEN MONTHS THAT THIS PROGRAM HAS BEEN IN OPERATION WE HAVE PREPARED AND SENT OUT 10,353 MEALS MAKING A SUBSTANTIAL INCREASE IN THE IMPACT WE ARE MAKING AS AN ORGANIZATION. CULINARY TRAINING PROGRAM: AFTER MUCH GROUNDWORK AND RESEARCH WE ARE EXCITED TO BE POISED TO LAUNCH OUR CULINARY TRAINING PROGRAM IN 2017. THROUGH HANDS ON PARTICIPATION IN A LIVE KITCHEN ENVIRONMENT WE WILL TEACH, TRAIN AND EQUIP OUR YOUNG STUDENTS WITH THE SKILLS NEEDED TO PRESENT THEM WITH CULINARY OPPORTUNITIES PAYING THEM WELL ABOVE THE MINIMUM WAGE. WE HAVE CREATED AN ENVIRONMENT THAT PROVIDES TRAINING, WORK EXPERIENCE, AND ABOVE ALL ELSE, THE OPPORTUNITY FOR AT RISK YOUTH AND YOUNG ADULTS TO WORK ALONGSIDE PROFESSIONAL CHEFS TO LEARN ESSENTIAL SKILLS FOR A CAREER IN FOOD SERVICE. OUR PROGRAM IS TIED INTO BOTH OUR FOOD TRUCK FEEDING & RECOVERED FOOD PROGRAMS AS WELL AS OUR CATERING OPERATIONS. CATERING FOR A CAUSE IS SIMPLY A REVENUE STREAM FOR US TO KEEP OUR PROGRAMS RUNNING WHICH ALSO OFFERS EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES FOR OUR STUDENTS. WITH ANY CULINARY TRAINING PROGRAM ONE OF THE HIGHEST EXPENSES IS THE COST OF FOOD THAT AN ORGANIZATION MUST PURCHASE IN ORDER TO TRAIN THEIR STUDENTS. BY UTILIZING OUR RECOVERED FOOD PROGRAM, WE WILL HAVE A STEADY SUPPLY OF PRODUCTS (AT NO COST) WITH WHICH WE CAN USE TO TEACH BASIC CULINARY SKILLS. THROUGH THIS TRAINING WE PROVIDE OUR STUDENTS THE OPPORTUNITY TO DEVELOP THE INTRODUCTORY SKILLS NEEDED FOR A REGULAR FULL TIME JOB IN A PROFESSIONAL KITCHEN. THE TRAINING PROGRAM ENTAILS LEARNING THE SKILLS NEEDED TO PREPARE, COOK AND SERVE ACTUAL MEALS WITH MENUS THAT FLUCTUATE AROUND OUR RECOVERED FOOD INVENTORY. 118943 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 7 5 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 CA X WILLIAM BRACKEN 9494553585 9643 TURTLEDOVE FOUNTAIN VALLEY CA 92708 DOUGLAS SCHONFELD BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 MICHAEL OWENS BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 YVETTE AHLSTROM BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 MICHAEL PEARSON BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 WILLIAM BRACKEN PRESIDENT, CEO 55.00 X 61539 0 0 MOLLY BRACKEN SECRETARY 2.00 X 0 0 0 SUSAN SINATRA TREASURER 2.00 X 0 0 0 61539 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 239513 59774 239513 PROGRAMS 722320 14116 14116 14116 4412 6499 -2087 -2087 COURTESY INCOME 722320 8372 8372 8372 259914 14116 0 6285 X 61539 43077 12308 6154 3595 2481 719 395 259 259 2431 2431 1718 901 817 1702 29 1673 5000 5000 46 46 2450 2450 7750 6542 1208 FOOD COSTS 36571 36571 CONTRACT WORK 10914 914 10000 MARKETING 10792 9433 864 495 TRANSPORTATION 6252 6252 8751 5293 1662 1796 159770 118943 21987 18840 51755 128021 35079 5120 5673 29959 57428 157980 1723 2131 1723 2131 X 53705 142849 13000 2000 0 55705 155849 57428 157980 100144 0 X 1 X 0 0 0 X 137252 239513 376765 14116 14116 137252 253629 390881 0 0 0 390881 8372 8372 137252 262001 399253 0.97900 0.00000 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 35079 5120 29959 29959 X 23 33038 FAIR MARKET VALUE X KITCHEN EQUIPMENT 1 26736 FAIR MARKET VALUE 0 0 0 FORM 990, PART III, LINE 2 RECOVERED FOOD PROGRAM, SEE STATEMENT OF PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS 4B.
