What The Lincoln Home does
Mission
The Lincoln Home provides senior living options for elderly residents in an environment fostering dignity, safety, comfort, and the enjoyment of meaningful lives.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
In 1927, seven women's clubs of Lincoln County organized and opened a boarding home for the elderly on seven dollars and a dream. These women set the high bar of excellence in caring and in giving. It is with their example that we are entrusted to carry on the mission providing joyful and abundant living for seniors on the coast of Maine.Lincoln Home now offers a variety of support services in the settings of independent living, assisted living, private duty home care, and memory loss care in a small home like environment to seniors. Begun as a simple boarding home for the elderly, The Lincoln Home has evolved over the years to serve the needs and desires of all seniors. It is now a highly respected and beautiful place for seniors to live and receive loving, respectful care. Lincoln Home enjoys an impeccable reputation as the go-to place for seniors to live, to receive current and pertinent information regarding senior issues and for its vibrant and diverse community life program that ensures one's mind, body, and spirit are valued and grown at every age. Lincoln Home makes every effort to be able to provide care for residents to the end of their life when possible. We are honored…

The program described on its FY2024 Form 990. Program spending in total: $4,185,435.
The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2021, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2021, 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 2022 to 2023, from $6.1M to $8.3M (+36%).
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: 2021 11% · 2022 5%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
3% of The Lincoln Home’s revenue is contributions — more earned-revenue than three-quarters of its peers (81% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 4 of the last 5 reported years ran a deficit.
