Overview

Mission

Anticipate more is not just our tagline. It’s a promise we’ve been keeping for close to a century.

What it reported doing in 2024

Residential living facilities: operation of 1,675 residential living units for the aged, providing 529,699 days of service in 2024. $296,981 of benevolent care and $469,378 of contractual allowances were provided to residential living residents during 2024. Also provided health and wellness programming and service to residents.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 93% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 98% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Few specific pay-setting methods are documented in the filing; unanswered boxes are not proof of absence and fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised.
