Programs
Program 1 [2020]
Although the economy was touted as in recovery and on the rise, the people we serve with basic needs have increased. Food security is the bastion of our mission. Most food programs increased by 30% this year; distributing over 250,000 pounds of groceries and staples and increasing our hot meals to close to 7000. We continue the summer food program, feeding youth breakfast and lunch during the summer months when schools are on summer recess, Al-Maa'uun continues to manage affordable housing units. We maintain our relations with other non-profits to provide rental and utility assistance. Our goal is to help client's secure stable housing through renting and/or home buyer classes. Al-Maa'uun has increased its job readiness programs to include women and all people of color. We're adding a temporary employment component to our services. Our facility undertook a massive construction project to eliminate an incessant flooding problem. With the help of Mississippi Water Management, Hennepin County and the 7-county Metropolitan Council we were able to secure funding for this $200K project that was completed in 2020. We continue to provide mentoring services through an agreement with US Probation for clients referred after being released from prison for up to a year. We successfully worked with 20 households to develop and implement plans toward stabilization in housing employment, health, behavior health and community engagement.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJan 1, 2020 – Dec 31, 2020Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$663.5KExpanded Food Services Program
Food Services: We have expanded our Food Services program to include school lunch preparation of approximately 1600 meals (breakfast and lunches) on a daily basis in September. This has been quite the undertaking and caused us to ramp up very quickly to a team of 10 to respond to the exponential growth. In addition, Al-Maa'uun has partnered with Meals of Wheels to become the first Halal vendor in Minneapolis to service our growing Muslim senior population. We serve approximately 500 meals weekly to seniors who are 60 and up and those under 60 with a disability.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJan 1, 2021 – Dec 31, 2021Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$990KNorth@Work Employment Services
