What New York Foundation for Senior Citizens Inc does

Mission

New york foundation for senior citizens is dedicated to helping new york's seniors enjoy healthier, safer, more productive, and dignified lives in their own homes and communities and to help them avoid the need for premature institutionalization. Established in 1968, the foundation is the only non-profit, non-sectarian organization serving new york's seniors in all five boroughs. Over the past four decades, the agency has grown from two employees and no funds for the provision of direct social services to new york city's only non-profit, non-sectarian agency, with over 1,200 employees. The foundation now provides over 800 units of housing and 35 professionally administered social service programs for tens of thousands of elderly new yorkers city-wide annually. These innovative projects serve as models for the development of similar services for the elderly throughout the world. We're always eager to undertake innovative programs that benefit the senior population.

As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.

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.
