- $465,864 spent. Bink International Charity also changed" The Breakthrough Program" to "Monthly Community Action & Advocacy Events Program". These events bring community members together to address social challenges affecting low-income families, raise awareness about community needs, and connect individuals with valuable resources and services. A key component of these events is the distribution of essential materials such as clothing, shoes, accessories, hygiene and personal care products, and household items. By providing these basic necessities, the program helps individuals and families maintain dignity, stability, and well-being while also promoting community engagement and awareness around issues such as poverty, access to resources, education, and economic opportunity. Through this program, we served fifty thousand, five hundred sixty-one (50561) people.

The organization launched a Weekly Food Pantry Program called "Healthy Saturday Program" to respond to the growing food insecurity affecting low-income families and underserved communities in our service area. Through this program, Bink provides consistent weekly access to nutritious food and essential grocery items for individuals and families in need. This initiative expanded the organizations hunger-relief efforts by increasing the frequency of food distributions and ensuring that community members facing ongoing hardship have reliable access to healthy food. Twelve thousand eight hundred fifty-three (12853) individuals and families benefited from this service. A total of four thousand, twenty-seven (4027) people were served under this program.
