Describe the Organization's Program Activity:
Part 3
COOKING FOR COMMUNITY RAISES MONEY IN ORDER TO PARTNER WITH RESTAURANTS TO PROVIDE HEALTHY AND NUTRITIOUS MEALS TO THOSE MOST IN NEED. OUR REACH INTO THE COMMUNITY HAS BEEN SIGNIFICANT. WE ARE AN ALL-VOLUNTEER ORGANIZATION, WITH COUNTLESS HOURS LOGGED BY A DEDICATED TEAM OF PROFESSIONALS WHO PUT THIS WORK INTO MOTION. AS A RESULT, WE KEEP OUR OVERHEAD TO NEAR-NOTHING WITH OVER 97% OF MONIES RAISED GOING DIRECTLY TO PROGRAMMING. WE BRING TOGETHER RESTAURANTS, SOCIAL SERVICE AGENCIES, LOCAL GOVERNMENT, FOUNDATIONS, BUSINESSES AND COALITION GROUPS TO CREATE A NETWORK OF OVER 40 PARTNERING ORGANIZATIONS. CONSEQUENTLY WE HAVE BEEN ABLE TO SERVE DELICIOUS AND NUTRITIOUS MEALS TO OUR NEIGHBORS WHO ARE OFTEN MOST AT RISK: THE ELDERLY, THE UNSHELTERED, IMMIGRANTS, LOW INCOME. WE HAVE CONTINUED TO EXPAND THE NETWORK OF RESTAURANTS AND SOCIAL SERVICE AGENCIES THAT WE WORK WITH AS WELL AS OUR GEOGRAPHIC REACH. IN 2021 COOKING FOR COMMUNITY FUNDED 13,900 MEALS DISTRIBUTED IN A GEOGRAPHIC AREA FROM GREATER PORTLAND, MAINE UP TO MID-COAST MAINE. COOKING FOR COMMUNITY'S SOCIAL SERVICE AGENCY PARTNERS INCLUDE AMISTAD, INC., LEWISTON HOUSING, BATH HOUSING, WALDOBORO FOOD PANTRY, AIO FOOD PANTRY, LANDING PLACE AND RECOVERY COALITION.
