01What it does

What Friends of Natick Senior Center Inc does

Mission

Well-being of senior citizens

As stated on its FY2023 Form 990.

Program

  1. The friends is a non-profit organization formed to help provide funds for the senior center of natick or council on aging which is not budgeted by local or state government. Contributions through grant appeal letters, craft fairs, raffles, trips, bottle and can drives, membership dues and memorial contributions are used to provide goods and services requested by said council on aging. As a by-product of fund raising, these help promote greater community awareness of the town's senior citizen's needs.

Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
