What does it mean for a nonprofit to be CRA aligned?
Each nonprofit on Community Qualifier has been reviewed by findCRA utilizing a dual evaluation process. Nonprofits are first evaluated by our proprietary algorithm, CRANIA, and then further validated by our CRA experts. When nonprofit passes both parts of this review, we create a nonprofit profile for them on Community Qualifier. From there, a nonprofit can claim their profile and add additional information including their programs & services, counties served, targeted clients and income groups and more.

Programs & Services info
Hunger Prevention - Food Pantry
South County Outreach has established that the most effective method to "care through food" is by offering an in-person, client-choice, grocery store experience whereby clients can walk the aisles just as they would a grocery retail store to select items based on their household’s particular needs and dietary/cultural preferences. This model not only greatly reduces the amount of food waste produced by South County Outreach clients, but it also helps build and preserve the dignity of our clients, which can have medium- and long-term effects on the household’s financial stability.
