Overview

Mission

Westminster home connection's vision is for every older adult and person with a disability to age-in-place safely and with dignity. We repair and make mobility modifications in hundreds of homes, preserving affordable housing. We encourage and support others to do the same.

What it reported doing in 2025

Critical home repairs and mobility modifications: in 2025, we completed 2,542 essential repairs and accessibility upgrades in 316 homes for 515 people. This included plumbing, electrical, roofing, ramps, and grab bars. These services improve safety and functionality for low-income older adults and people with disabilities, enabling them to age in place while preserving affordable housing and enhancing health and quality of life.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 88% 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.
  • Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.

The verdict

STRONG - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of total spending goes to programs. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
