Overview

Mission

We are a catholic, faith-based organization entrusted with advancing the life-enhancing senior care ministry of the benedictine sisters of duluth, Minnesota. We witness to god's love by creating inclusive communities, supporting those we serve to live well and with purpose, with special concern for the underserved.

What it reported doing in 2024

The benedictine adult day center (badc) is a comprehensive enriching program with creative activities, nutritious meals, and dignified personal care. Clients coming to this program receive support in their healthcare, personal, and social needs, allowing clients to continue to live in their community setting and giving respite to their caregiver. The saint anne training center (satc) offers a federally approved course designed to educate capable, compassionate nursing assistants in caring for our aging population. Additional classes focus on restorative training and feeding assistant training.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 95% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 94% 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. Few specific pay-setting methods are documented in the filing; unanswered boxes are not proof of absence and expenses are high relative to revenue.
