Grants to the nursing center provide for direct nursing and personal care to infirm nursing home residents. It is estimated that 54% of the residents are indigent, with the cost of their care being paid for by medicaid (which does not provide reimbursement to cover the actual cost of resident care). This grant also helps underwrite the costs of providing kosher food in keeping with jewish dietary laws; in providing a rabbi for pastoral counseling, jewish programming, and for jewish holiday worship services; and for providing entertainment and activities programming. In addition, the organization conducts an annual fund-raising campaign (the "annual fund") throughout the year, as well as a series of low key, targeted fundraising efforts surrounding the occurrence of certain jewish holidays.

03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2017 → 2023: the base narrowed from 4 funders to 3 funders, grant income fell $97k → $73k.

6 of 16 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 81% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

From the IRS filings of DAUGHTERS OF SARAH JEWISH FOUNDATION INC’s funders (the co-funder graph). Association, not causation.
