IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0IN THE FIVE YEARS SINCE THE CHARLIE CART PROJECT (CCP) LAUNCHED, WE HAVE REACHED NEARLY 300,000 CHILDREN AND THEIR FAMILIES IN 38 STATES ACROSS THE COUNTRY. AT THE OUTSET OF FY2019, WITH A STAFF OF FIVE, A WELL-HONED MANUFACTURING SYSTEM, AND A CONSISTENTLY INCREASING CUSTOMER BASE, CCP WAS PREPARED FOR THE NEXT STAGE OF GROWTH. WHEN SCHOOLS AND LIBRARIES SHUT DOWN IN MARCH 2020, CCP WAS DECISIVE AND PROACTIVE. WE CONTINUED TRAINING NEW EDUCATORS ON-LINE AND CREATED A SET OF RESOURCES FOR HOME SCHOOLING PARENTS AND TEACHERS SEEKING HANDS-ON CONTENT TO LEVERAGE DURING SHELTER IN PLACE.DESPITE THE CHALLENGES, THE CHARLIE CART PROJECT CONTINUED TO EXPAND, ADDING 65 NEW PROGRAM SITES NATIONWIDE. WE IMMEDIATELY MOVED OUT OF OUR OFFICES, COMMUNICATED WITH OUR FUNDERS TO MODIFY GRANT FUNDED PROJECTS, AND LEVERAGED OUR MATERIALS AND EXPERTISE TO DELIVER RELEVANT, TIMELY RESOURCES TO THE CHARLIE CART NETWORK ON-LINE.TO DATE, THE CHARLIE CART PROJECT HAS TRAINED MORE THAN 800 EDUCATORS, SUPPORTING THEM WITH TOOLS AND CAPACITY TO DELIVER HANDS-ON COOKING LESSONS WITHIN THEIR ORGANIZATIONS. WE SUPPORT EACH PROGRAM SITE WITH CAPACITY BUILDING TO INTEGRATE COOKING AND NUTRITION OVER THE LONG TERM. AS SCHOOLS AND LIBRARIES WERE SHUT DOWN ACROSS THE COUNTRY, IT BECAME PAINFULLY CLEAR THE CRITICAL ROLE THESE INSTITUTIONS HAVE IN REACHING AND FEEDING CHILDREN. THE CHARLIE CART PROJECT'S ON-GOING RELATIONSHIP TO OUR SITES, RURAL AND URBAN, HAS ENABLED US TO SUPPORT THEM WITH MEANINGFUL TOOLS AND CONNECTIONS TO HELP THEM THROUGH THIS CHALLENGE.RELATED EXPENSES INCLUDE STAFF SALARY AND BENEFITS; WEBSITE DEVELOPMENT; TRAINING MATERIALS; RESOURCE DEVELOPMENT AND PUBLICATION.
