Two Nonprofits One Conviction One Free

Description

Federal agents raided Feeding Our Future, a nonprofit convicted of stealing $250 million from a government meal program, while its rival, Partners in Nutrition, led by Kara Lomen, remains untouched despite allegations of running fake meal sites and accepting kickbacks. Though multiple convicted fraudsters claimed Lomen’s involvement, federal prosecutors declined to charge her, leaving $18 million unaccounted for. The Minnesota Department of Education barred Partners in Nutrition for seven years, while the state Attorney General pursues a civil case to recover the funds. Federal records show officials suspected Partners in Nutrition as early as October 2020, but prosecutors won’t explain why charges weren’t filed — raising serious questions about oversight and accountability.
