What LongfellowSeward Healthy Seniors Program does
Mission
The mission of Longfellow/Seward Healthy Seniors Program is to enable community seniors to live healthy, independent and socially connected lives. Our service area includes five south Minneapolis neighborhoods: Longfellow, Seward, Cooper, Howe, and Hiawatha. The area is bounded by the Mississippi River on the east; Hwy. 55 on the west; Interstate 94 on the north; and Minnehaha Falls Park on the south. We also provide outreach to three adjoining neighborhoods including Cedar Riverside, Ventura Village and Philips West to provide outreach to the BIPOC community and the Somali refugee population in particular. We're a Living at Home/Block Nurse Program and a member of the Living at Home Network.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
2025 was a year of transition, resilience, and forward movement for Longfellow/Seward Healthy Seniors (LSHS). During this time of transition, LSHS provided a steady presence for members, for each other, and for the LSHS community.Expanded services and programs included Nurse Is In clinics at Soup for You and in Cedar-Riverside, a Volunteer Caregiver Training, and Healthy Eating classes in both English and Somali. LSHS expanded food support services to help meet the basic needs of older adults in our neighborhoods. LSHS hosted a Holiday Party for its members. During 2025, 731 total members were served, 335 members received health services, 585 members received support services, 326 members joined social activities, and 2,077 volunteer hours were donated.

The organization over time
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.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2023 to 2024, from $579k to $677k (+17%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Government-grant reliance: 2020 58% · 2021 61% · 2022 81% · 2023 67% · 2024 63% · 2025 53%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
94% of LongfellowSeward Healthy Seniors Program’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (91% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year
2020 → 2023: the base narrowed from 5 funders to 1 funder, grant income fell $81k → $47k.
1 of 8 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 2% 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 LongfellowSeward Healthy Seniors Program’s funders (the co-funder graph). Association, not causation. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How concentrated its funding is
LongfellowSeward Healthy Seniors Program leans on a few funders — its largest provides 54% of grant income and the top three 89%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
65% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund LongfellowSeward Healthy Seniors Program.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2020 31% · 2021 45% · 2022 70% · 2023 100% — growing more concentrated.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How long its funders stay
20% of LongfellowSeward Healthy Seniors Program's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 38% give in more than one year at all.
Share of funders still giving k years after their first recorded grant, pooled across every acquisition cohort. A funder counts as retained in a year only if it made a grant that year. Measured to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving — a funder cannot be counted as lapsed in a year most filers have not reached.
Where its funders are
97% of LongfellowSeward Healthy Seniors Program's grant income comes from Minnesota funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $7k arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
