Overview

Mission

Roosevelt Island Senior Association (dba Good Life on Roosevelt Island Association) helps create interesting programs for a broad age range of older adults through their relationships with other residents in the community.

What it reported doing in 2025

We worked to provide essential services, broadening our outreach and programs to a wider range of active older adults and special populations. Activities included self-defense classes, exercise classes, pickle ball, movie nights, holiday celebrations, and charitable events.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 81% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
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. Revenue has declined or grown slowly and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
