Overview

Mission

To establish a community-based service, which uses community professional and volunteer personnel to provide directly or in cooperation with appropriate agencies and resources, those health and social services needed by residents 65 and older.

What it reported doing in 2024

Provide rides to appointments, schedule exercise sessions, provide for blood pressure checks, educational forums and articles concerning health and mental issues and other assistance needed by elderly residents in the surrounding area.

Operating model

Revenue model
Grant-funded. 73% of the money available for current operations came from government grants.
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

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised.
