Overview

Mission

To improve the lives of seniors and those who support them, both within our communities and beyond, through strong governance, financial oversight, exceptional people experiences, advocacy, and continued growth.

What it reported doing in 2024

Avery point provides services needed by senior residents, who reside in 518 independent living units. The services we provide to our residents include, but are not limited to housing, food, medical, security and maintenance services, recreational and pastoral activities.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 98% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% 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. Expenses are high relative to revenue and liabilities are high compared with assets.
