Overview

Mission

It is the mission of st. Charles care center, inc.

The senior population is served by providing housing, health care and other related services.

What it reported doing in 2025

St. Charles at home program provides personal care services to residents of the st. Charles community. The program includes cooking meals, doing household chores and monitoring if needed. St. Charles also operates a senior resource center (the center) that provides no-cost services to elders with financial need by assisting them to access healthcare and other needed services, providing assistive devices, other material goods, and other services. The cost of the center and the services it provides are funded primarily by the corporation. The recipients of these services pay nothing.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 83% 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 total spending goes to programs and the filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised.
