Programs

  1. Women's Christian Association of Kansas City, Missouri (WCA), doing business as Armour Oaks Senior Living Community (AO) is a retirement facility providing a continuum of care with independent living, assisted living, and skilled nursing services, dedicated to providing a secure homelike environment where seniors can live with dignity and independence. We provide personalized housing, health and social services to meet the needs of each resident. Our senior living services are provided to persons, including those at or below the poverty level, without regard to race, national origin, gender, age, disability, or religious belief. WCA is a stand-alone private not-for-profit corporation. All income is combined and used for the charitable purpose of WCA and all programs of WCA/AO are combined in one operating statement. This process allows WCA/AO to continue services to those seniors who have exhausted all of their income and savings and are at poverty level. As a point of reference, approximately seventy-five percent (75%) of our skilled population is Medicaid dependent. Medicaid reimbursement for these residents is far less than the actual cost of providing services and housing. In…

Each line starts at 100 in 2020, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2020, 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.

TX

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $368k arriving through sponsors registered in 2 states 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.
