Over the past ten years, Project Bread has allocated eighty percent of the organization’s expenses directly to help the hungry through emergency food grants and hunger prevention programs, and twenty percent to support Project Bread’s fundraising and administrative efforts. The Charitable Bureau of the Better Business Bureau has determined that a “reasonable use of funds requires that total fundraising and administrative costs not exceed fifty percent of total income.” We are very proud of our achievement in relation to this standard.

Because of the extraordinary support Project Bread receives from the community through generous donations of time, goods, and services, we are able to keep our overhead expenses low. As a result, those who give to Project Bread know that the money they contribute goes where it is needed most ... to feed the hungry.
