Overview

Mission

Provide elderly persons and handicapped persons with housing facilities and services specially designed to meet their physical, social and psychological needs, and to promote their health, security, happiness and usefulness in longer living.

What it reported doing in 2024

The corporation owns and operates a 48-unit retirement home for the elderly. The retirement home is limited to low-income elderly and/or disabled residents whose rent is partially subsidized by a hud project rental assistance contract.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 71% 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

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and expenses are high relative to revenue.
