We match the street line and ZIP code as the IRS gives them, ignoring case and outer spaces and nothing else, so "AVE" and "AVENUE" count as different streets and this list can miss some. A shared address can mean related organizations or a shared office, but it can also be a registered agent, a mail drop or a service provider holding mail for unrelated clients. It is not, by itself, evidence that two organizations are connected.

Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

To develop and operate a senior learning housing community on land leased from the State University of New York on the Purchase College campus.

Activities or mission (Part I)

To develop & operate a senior learning house community on the grounds of SUNY, Purchase College.

  • The Purchase College Advancement Corporation (PCAC), a member-less New York State not-for-profit corporation with federal 501(c)(3) designation, was formed to develop and operate a senior living and learning complex to be built on the campus of Purchase College, State University of New York (SUNY), on a 40.05 acre parcel of land leased from SUNY. Using a $5,250,000 grant from Purchase College Foundation Housing Corporation (PCFHC), PCAC stewarded the enabling legislation, market research, design, and contractual arrangements with the various project consultants and with an operations manager. Key provisions of the enabling legislation include giving PCAC the right to construct up to 385 living units, of which 20% are to be affordable to residents whose income is 80% or less of the Westchester County median income, and that the proceeds are to be used by the college, divided 75% for TAP eligible student scholarships and 25% for new full-time faculty. The initial phase of the development consists of 220 independent living units, of which 44 are the aforementioned affordable units, 36 assisted living suites, 32 memory care suites, and a building containing community amenities such as dining venues, health and wellness facilities, classrooms, etc., all totaling approximately 550,000 of conditioned space, and related infrastructure improvements. The community's Offering Plan for this initial phase has been approved by the New York State Attorney General. PCAC created a separate New York State not-for-profit corporation, Purchase Senior Learning Community Inc. (PSLC), whose sole member is PCAC. PSLC has also received 501(c)(3) designation by the Internal Revenue Service. PSLC is the Sponsor of the community, is the obligor of the tax exempt bond financing, and is the sub-lessee of the land. As of May, 2018, all contracts and work products have been transferred from PCAC to PSLC. In October, 2018, PSLC raised $15,000,000 in bond anticipation note funds which were used to complete the remainder of the pre-development and pre-marketing efforts. On November 10, 2021, PSLC closed on the issuance of $398,090,000 of bonds issued through the Westchester County Local Development Corporation, of which $391,200,000 are tax-exempt to the bondholders for both New York State and Federal income taxes, and $6,890,000 are taxable. With initial issue premiums, the total proceeds of the bond financing was $406,084,608. The bond proceeds are being used to: refund the $15,000,000 of bond anticipation notes, together with accreted interest; to fund the hard and soft costs of the construction of the project; to fund capitalized interest; to fund debt service reserves; to fund certain start-up losses; and to fund the costs of issuance. Construction of the community, known as Broadview Senior Living at Purchase College, began immediately after financing was obtained in November 2021. The community opened and welcomed its first resident December 8, 2023. All construction was completed in the late summer of 2024. The goals of the community are to support the education mission of the college through the provision of revenue, generated from ground rent of the lease, to fund scholarships for students, to enhance the college's ability to compete for faculty dedicated to transformative engagement with the student body, and to create an environment fostering inquiry based, intergenerational learning that not only sustains life, but improves it for all involved, all in furtherance of the purposes and objectives of the enabling legislation. With the addition of the residents of the senior living community, the college has become a center for life-long learning. It offers students of all ages unique, non-conventional access to opportunities for intellectual and social growth through academic, cultural and social activities. A second set of goals, equally as important, is to provide much needed, high-quality service-based housing and care for area seniors.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all.

As filed, from the IRS e-Postcard file of 2 November 2026. The IRS publishes only each organization's most recent postcard, so earlier years are not shown. A 990-N carries no financial detail. The postcard also gives the principal officer's address, which is not shown here.

Grants made

No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.

Grants received

No itemized grant names this organization as a recipient. Only grants over $5,000 are itemized, and only by filers of the full Form 990.

Related organizations

From Schedule R Part II, where a filer lists the tax-exempt organizations it is related to by control. It does not record shared board members or money.

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Listed as of 13 October 2026, under deductibility PC.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
