In 2024 Source will provide $4.5 Million of HEALTHY Food Relief to over 600 family visits 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.
