Reporting

All monthly reports are due by the 5th day of the following month. TEFAP requires all food pantries to report the number of households served. 

Reporting Instructions

FOR FOOD PANTRIES ONLY

• COUNT each person in the household who received food, even if only one person came to the pantry.
• COUNT every person each time they received food from your food pantry.

FOR SOUP KITCHENS AND ON-SITE MEAL PROGRAMS ONLY

• COUNT each person served a meal at each mealtime. For example, if a person is served breakfast and lunch at your site in the same day, count this as two persons served.
• COUNT persons returning for “seconds” at a single mealtime as one person served.

*Age Metric

• CHILDREN: All those between 0 and 17 years of age.
• ADULTS: Those between 18 and 59 years of age.
• SENIORS: Those 60 years and older.

*If you do not know a client’s age, please estimate.
