Where the work happens

3 program services account for $1.6M of program spending, described in the organization's own filed words · FY2022.
01

Employment Services

As of January 2021, we've had 75 candidates come through the North@Work program, which focuses on African & African American men ages 25 up with training and livable wage employment. A total of 18 clients received commercial driving license (CDL) and 12 received certificates of completion in Construction and IT from Summit Academy.

02

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.

Housing

We currently have 10 units of housing that we own/manage through Al-Maa'uun. We house individuals and families through our "second chance" housing model that focuses on people with chronic unemployment, criminal backgrounds, homelessness.

The names, titles, and compensation shown on this page are reproduced from IRS Form 990 filings, which are public records.

Philanthropy.org does not alter the content of those filings. All information appears exactly as reported by the filing organization for the tax year shown.

We publish only information contained in the public IRS filing — and less than the filing contains. Our profile pages do not display street addresses, telephone numbers, personal email addresses, or other personal contact information, even where the filing includes them.

Many people share the same name. A name shown on this page reflects only what one organization reported in one IRS filing for one tax year. It should not be interpreted as identifying any other individual with the same or a similar name.

If you are no longer affiliated with the organization, your name will generally stop appearing in future IRS filings once the organization no longer reports you. Pages for tax years in which you were reported remain published because those filings remain part of the public record.

Philanthropy.org does not alter or remove IRS filing records. Removing a page from this website would not remove the underlying IRS filing, which remains publicly available from the IRS and other publishers of the same information.

If you believe the IRS filing itself is inaccurate, corrections must be made by the filing organization or the IRS directly.
