Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
Heritage Pointe is the only non-profit Jewish Senior Living Community in Orange County, California. We provide assisted living and memory care to any Seniors wishing to live within the Jewish Tradition.
We have a wide variety of programs. We also work with those residents who need financial aid - those who meet the qualifications for financial assistance are provided subsidies when and where needed. This prevents those who can no longer afford the care they need to stay in the environment they cherish and receive critical support in their most needed years. Heritage Pointe was started 33 years ago with a Mission of honoring our Fathers and Mothers as Jewish tradition teaches and we have never lost sight of that goal.
What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?
We recently renovated part of our campus to include 24/7 care for those Seniors who need more attention than traditional assisted living. We have established the Heritage Fund which goes directly towards supporting the programs which provide financial aid to those in need of assistance. We have additional programs that provide education, transportation, physical activity and continuing healthcare education. We are invested in providing not only a safe and healthy environment but also one where our Residents can thrive.
What are the organization's capabilities for doing this?
Capabilities for meeting goals include continued fundraising events, membership drives, capital campaigns and grant awards.
What have they accomplished so far and what's next?
This year alone, we have provided over $1 million in financial aid. We range between 10%-20%of our population on financial assistance with those numbers steady or increasing. We have increased our programs to include music, education and technological support for seniors who struggle with keeping the lines of communication open in this ever expanding technological world. We have made sure they are not left behind with these advances by implementing and acquiring programs which further seniors abilities to stay in touch. Every year, our financial aid reaches more and more Residents and we strive to reach more every years.

Balance sheetFiscal Year: Jul 01 - Jun 30
The balance sheet gives a snapshot of the financial health of an organization at a particular point in time. An organization's total assets should generally exceed its total liabilities, or it cannot survive long, but the types of assets and liabilities must also be considered. For instance, an organization's current assets (cash, receivables, securities, etc.) should be sufficient to cover its current liabilities (payables, deferred revenue, current year loan, and note payments). Otherwise, the organization may face solvency problems. On the other hand, an organization whose cash and equivalents greatly exceed its current liabilities might not be putting its money to best use.
