What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Weekly Food Distribution
On Wednesdays from 8:30 - 12:00 and 3:30 - 5:30, the food bank is open for distribution to our clients. On average the food bank distributes on Wednesday to 170 food insecure families. We provide an abundance of fresh produce, dairy items and other perishables, shelf stable items, breads, and pastries. We are able to achieve this with the help of our local grocery stores, our volunteers, donors, and local organizations.
Home Bound Food Delivery
The Sedona Community Food Bank delivers a monthly food box to home bound seniors. These clients are home bound due to health or age-related issues. The food box is personally packed to the client's dietary requirements. The box contains shelf-stable items, milk, orange juice, cheese, lunch meat, eggs, bread, and pastries. These boxes are delivered to our client's homes by food bank and Verde Valley Caregivers volunteers.
Backpack Program
The Sedona Community Food Bank packs a weekend food pack for students attending local schools. These students would otherwise not have enough food to eat over the weekend. This program helps keeps the children fed until they return to school on Monday. The food pack contains 2 breakfasts, 2 snacks, a juice, 2 lunches, and 2 entrees. The food packs are packed on Thursday by a local faith-based organization. Then the food packs are delivered by the faith-based group to the school. This program runs the entire school year.

Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
The SEDONA COMMUNITY FOOD BANK will continue to assist those in need in the greater Sedona area. To increase our outreach to those who are unable to access the food bank at our physical address. To continue to collaborate with other non-profits in the Verde Valley who are assisting those in need of food and other basic essentials.
What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?
Zero Hunger - increasing the availability of food to all in need. Via delivery, communication, and partnerships.
Good Health - continue to provide a choice of 10 varieties of seasonal fresh produce to our clients on a weekly basis.
Industry Innovation & Infrastructure - our market - style shopping available at our weekly distribution. Provides choice, reduces food waste, and dignity to our clients.
Reduced Inequalities - all are welcome and are treated with respect. To continue and increase our delivery and drive through service for those who are unable to attend.
Sustainable Cities & Communities - to continue with zero waste of edible and recyclable products. To provide a small community garden for all to access.
Responsible Consumption & Production - To continue with our quarterly healthy cooking class with seasonal food products. Only order food items that will be distributed within a short time to avoid over purchase and food waste.
Partnerships for Goals - To continue and increase our collaborations with other non-profits and organizations to increase our reach to those in need.

Sedona Community Food Bank
Balance sheetFiscal Year: Jan 01 - Dec 31
The balance sheet gives a snapshot of the financial health of an organization at a particular point in time. An organization's total assets should generally exceed its total liabilities, or it cannot survive long, but the types of assets and liabilities must also be considered. For instance, an organization's current assets (cash, receivables, securities, etc.) should be sufficient to cover its current liabilities (payables, deferred revenue, current year loan, and note payments). Otherwise, the organization may face solvency problems. On the other hand, an organization whose cash and equivalents greatly exceed its current liabilities might not be putting its money to best use.
