Overview

Mission

To empower older adults to lead dignified lives with purpose by offering vital services to them and their families.

What it reported doing in 2024

Transportation program - transportation is provided to adults 60 years of age or older who live in las vegas or north las vegas. We use 7 fully equipped ada compliant vehicles to provide rides for medical appointments, grocery shopping, and other errands as schedule allows. Rides are provided to ambulatory as well as clients using assistive devices. During the fiscal year we provided rides to 338 participants. Respite care program - grants of 1000 are awarded to individuals caring for an adult 60 years of age or over. These grants give the caregiver the opportunity to have someone care for their loved one while they take a break; preventing unnecessary and/or early institutionalization of seniors so that they can age in place. During the fiscal year we awarded 330 vouchers.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
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.
  • Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.

The verdict

STRONG - 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 total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
