Overview

Mission

To offer affordable housing for low-income individuals in efficient and effective ways.

What it reported doing in 2025

Stoney pine/charities housing corp. Provides 23-units of affordable housing and related services for low-income persons in santa clara county.

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.

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.
