Impact evidence
Describes programs. Its tax return describes what it does but we have found no measurable results in it.
Programs described in its return (4)
- $624,083 spent. The majority of work has been to support communities facing malnutrition - this has been done through small grants made to 60 community organizers and purchasing basic food ingredients to augment what the communities collectively supply on their own. Last year, we supported programs that fed around 15,000 children, pregnant women, and new mothers, across 200 locations.
- $112,709 spent. 2024 saw a continuation of our budget and projects for basic public health supplies. Basic cleaning materials were purchased for our communities so volunteers could safely prepare meals and children safely collect the food made available to them. Our nutrition-program focused health supplies included scales, measuring tapes, and trainings on hygiene, nutrition, and sanitary cooking procedures. Grants were given to health professionals to train and assist in this work.
- $161,569 spent. Alimenta conducted a project on empowering women community leaders with additional skills beyond the scope required for safely running community kitchens, so that women were more prepared to support their communities especially in violence reduction work and to equip women with minimal skills to enter the workforce. This program continued from last year, with a similarly sized team and number of grant recipients and training programs.
- $24,000 spent. Professional conflict mediation interventions and trainings for communities and to protect the broader humanitarian space for workers, including with cyber security training.
