Source 2024 YE Campaign
2024 YE goal of $225,000 is a combination of
- $125K: 2025 MEM Healthy Food Initiative
- $100K: Recovery Resource & Faith Initiatives
$95,000 left to meet YE Goal (as of 12/15/24 $130k has been raised… Thank you)
Our 2025 goal is to continue the amazing growth and fruit we saw in 2024 – To reach, empower, and see spiritual fruit for the poorest of the poor.
2024 has been a year of growth and fruit. It has been exciting as the Food Distribution providing 25,000 more weekly groceries in 2024 is reflective of the growth in all our Outreach Programs as well as the increase of the spiritual fruit.
The needs of impoverished families, at-risk women and youth as well as those in recovery have never been greater. In the last few years, the numbers of those in need have increased and Source has built the reputation of the people who feed you and pray for you….and Source can really help. Individuals and families come to our front door like never before. Every week we see 15-20 new families including those that have entered our country within the last week.
$100K Recovery Resources and Faith Initiatives
Continue Programs Beyond Food to Empower Life Long Change & Encourage Faith
Empowering Life Long Change
Source is effective and unique. We are reaching the at-risk and unreached while doing things no one else is doing. Source also goes beyond meeting physical needs and empowers life long change.
Our Recovery Resource and Faith Initiatives Programs provide the components that go from “Enabling with just physical needs today” to “Empowering foundations for lifelong change.”
$100,000 is approx 40% of our annual budget for Recovery Resources and Faith Initiatives. This will allow Source to continue to do more than just food and provide hope to overcome. Empowering individuals to make a break from the past and build future foundations.

HEALTHY Food to 600 families each week – Replace discontinued 2024 resources
The discontinued rescue program and county grants have left a $125,000 deficit (30% of the food budget).
Feed You & Pray for You: 1) Outreach & Food have been a bridge to 2) Recovery Resources & 3) Faith Initiatives for thousands since 2020. In 2024 Source will provide $4.5 Million of HEALTHY Food Relief to over 600 families weekly – 30,000 family visits in ’24
(135,000 individuals).
We have been able to do this for under 12% cost/value ratio – 2024 cost was $400,000 but will increase to $550,000 in 2025.
In 2025 the cost will increase $5/family (from $15 to $20/family visit) to continue to provide HEALTHY Food. The cost in 2025 will be $20/visit that will provide $160 (more than 8x the cost) of food for the week. The average family size is 4.7.
