Overview

Mission

Provided weekday adventures to celebrate and honor seniors.

What it reported doing in 2020

Provided weekday adventures to celebrate and honor each senior, making sure they know they are of great value and worth and have not been forgotten. This was accomplished by sharing time together through some form of social entertainment or a congregate meal, whether at a local restaurant or home-cooked, which nurtures and encourages relationship with new friends.

Operating model

Revenue model
Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
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. Revenue has declined or grown slowly and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
