Vision

A community where every household has the resources, knowledge, and opportunity to achieve lasting stability.

Goals

1. 1.Investing in Daystar’s capacity strengthens leadership, technology, and financial systems so the organization can serve the community more effectively. This includes staff development, improved data systems, and strong financial management, enabling Daystar to expand programs, measure impact, and help households move from crisis to stability.
2. 2.Daystar will expand access to its current programs by increasing pantry capacity, growing more fresh produce in the Edible Garden, and offering additional financial coaching and Daystar Academy classes. Strengthened technology and partnerships will improve outreach and referrals, allowing more households to access food, resources, and support that lead to stability.
3. 3.Daystar will focus resources on core programs that address food insecurity and financial stability, including the healthy pantry, edible garden, and financial coaching. Non-core activities will be reduced or streamlined so staff time, funding, and partnerships can be concentrated on services that deliver the greatest impact for households.
