What it reported doing in 2024

The organization provided in-home services to home bound elderly, including home visits by physicians and nurses. The goal of this program is to provide care to home bound elderly who are unable to come into the office and to allow these people to age with dignity in their own homes for as long as possible. We went to local homeless shelters, soup kitchens, and drop-in centers to form relationships with the homeless, and when trust developed, invited them into care at our offices.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 62% 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. Fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised and expenses are high relative to revenue.
