Activities or mission (Part I)

TO ESTABLISH, OWN, AND MAINTAIN A CHARITABLE CONTINUING CARE RETIREMENT COMMUNITY FOR THE ELDERLY

  • BIRCH HILL TERRACE ADOPTED THE DBA RIVERWOODS MANCHESTER (RWM) IN FY21 AND HAS BEEN AFFILIATIED WITH RIVERWOODS SINCE 2016. AS A TYPE B CONTRACT, NOT-FOR-PROFIT CONTINUING CARE COMMUNITY (CCRC) OUR PRIMARY SERVICE IS TO PROVIDE HOUSING, HEALTH CARE SERVICES, FOOD SERVICES, AND SECURITY TO OLDER ADULTS OVER AGE 62. ON 6/30/25, THE COMMUNITY HOUSED APPROXIMATELY 190 RESIDENTS IN INDEPENDENT LIVING APARTMENTS AND 64 RESIDENTS IN ITS HEALTH CARE CENTER. DURING THE YEAR, THE HEALTH CARE CENTER SERVED ABOUTY 70 RESIDENTS ON A PERMANENT, TEMPORARY OR PER DIEM BASIS AT A SUBSTANTIALLY DISCOUNTED RATE. LIFECARE RESIDENTS RECEIVE A DISCOUNTED RATE WHEN IN THE HEALTH CENTER. THE "CONTRACTUAL ALLOWANCE" (I.E. WRITE-OFF) RELATED TO THE LEVEL OF CARE PROVIDED FOR LIFECARE CONTRACT RESIDENTS WAS $843,824 FOR FY25.AS A NOT-FOR-PROFIT CCRC, RWM HAS A BENEVOLENCE FUND TO HELP RESIDENTS WHO HAVE OUTLIVED THEIR ASSETS OR HAVE FOUND THEMSELVES UNABLE TO MAKE THEIR FINANCIAL COMMITMENT, THROUGH NO FAULT OF THEIR OWN. IF NEEDED, A RESIDENT CAN TURN TO THE RIVERWOODS BENEVOLENCE FUND, RATHER THAN PLACING FINANCIAL BURDEN ON SENIOR ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS OUTSIDE THE RIVERWOODS COMMUNITY. IN FY25, RWM PROVIDED FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE TO A TOTAL OF FOUR RESIDENTS IN THE AMOUNT OF $317,885.OUR NOT-FOR-PROFIT MISSION PROVIDES COMMUNITY, PURPOSE, AND PEACE OF MIND. ONE OF THE PRIMARY WAYS OUR RESIDENTS AND STAFF FIND PURPOSE IS THROUGH GIVING BACK TO THE COMMUNITY AND THE SURROUNDING AREA IN A NUMBER OF WAYS. RWM HAS DEEP ROOTS IN THE CITY OF MANCHESTER AND THE SURROUNDING AREA. WE BEGAN CLOSE TO 150 YEARS AGO AS THE WOMEN'S AID AND RELIEF SOCIETY AND HAVE EVOLVED AS THE NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITY HAVE CHANGED. AS ACTIVE NEIGHBORS OF THE GREATER COMMUNITY, WE SERVE THE LOCAL AREAS WITH OUR TIME, KNOWLEDGE, AND RESOURCES. IN FY25, BOTH STAFF AND RESIDENTS FOUND MANY WAYS TO GIVE BACK, SERVE OTHERS, AND SUPPORT THE LOCAL COMMUNITY BY VOLUNTEERING THEIR TIME ON LOCAL NOT-FOR-PROFIT BOARDS, VOLUNTEERING HOURS IN THEIR COMMUNITY, COLLECTING PHYSICAL DONATIONS FOR TOY AND FOOD DRIVES AND MAKING KNITTED ITEMS TO DONATE TO LOCAL ORGANIZATIONS. RWM ENCOURAGES EMPLOYEES TO VOLUNTEER DURING WORK HOURS FOR SPECIAL NOT-FOR-PROFIT PROJECTS. ANOTHER LONG-TREM PARTNERSHIP OF RWM IS WITH THE MOORE CENTER, IN MANCHESTER, WHO HELP FIND DIGNIFIED AND MEANINGFUL EMPLOYEMENT AND PURPOSE FOR PEOPLE WITH DEVELOPMENTAL AND INTELLECTUAL DISABILITIES. WE HAVE LONG PARTNERED WITH THE MOORE CENTER CLIENTS WHO BENEFIT FROM JOB SHADOWING/INTERNSHIPS AT RIVERWOODS MANCHESTER.PART OF OUR MISSION IS NOT ONLY TO HELP IMPROVE THE EXPERIENCE OF AGING FOR AS MANY ADULTS AS POSSIBLE, BUT ALSO TO SHARE THAT KNOWLEDGE WITH OTHERS, ESPECIALLY THE YOUNGER GENERATION. EMPLOYEES REGULARLY SHARE THEIR KNOWLEDGE BY INVITING STUDENTS INTO THE RWM COMMUNITY WHO CAN LEARN FROM THE VAST KNOWLEDGE AND EXPERIENCE OF THE STAFF. OVER THE YEARS WE HAVE HOSTED STUDENTS FROM A VARIETY OF SCHOOLS AND PROVIDED INTERNSHIPS IN A VARIETY OF COURSEWORK, FROM MARKETING TO FINANCE TO SOCIAL WORK AND HEALTH CARE. A KEY OBJECTIVE OF OUR COMMUNITY IS NOT ONLY TO SHARE OUR EXPERIENCES WITH OTHERS, BUT TO LEARN FROM OTHERS IN THE INDUSTRY AT THE SAME TIME. IN THIS WAY WE CONTINUE TO INNOVATE, TO REMAIN AT THE FOREFRONT OF NEW TRENDS IN OUR INDUSTRY, AND TO RESPOND TO CHANGING CONSUMER PREFERENCES, WHILE ALSO ADVANCING THE SENIOR LIVING INDUSTRY AS A WHOLE. OUR LEADERS REGULARLY ATTEND INDUSTRY SEMINARS, PARTICIPATE IN STUDY GROUPS, AND PRESENT ON NATIONAL AND INTERNALTIONAL PANELS WITHIN OUR INDUSTRY, AS WELL AS DRAFT ARTICLES FOR LEADING PUBLICATIONS. RWM IS A STRONG COMMUNITY PARTNER AND IN ADDITION TO RESIDENT AND STAFF TIME SPENT VOLUNTEERING, RWM HAS HELPED A NUMBER OF COMMUNITY-WIDE EVENTS AND ORGANIZATIONS WITH FINANCIAL SUPPORT. RWM HAS ALSO PROVIDED SMALL HONORARIUMS/DONATIONS TO A NUMBER OF GROUPS WHO HAVE PROVIDED SPEAKERS FOR OUR ON-CAMPUS EDUCATION PROGRAMS.EDUCATION IS A VALUE HIGHLY PRIZED BY RWM RESIDENTS. IN FY25, RWM ESTABLISHED THE RIVERWOODS MANCHESTER SCHOLARSHIP FUND FOR STAFF TO PURSUE HIGHER EDUCATION. IN FY25, $34,000 WAS AWARDED TO 10 RECIPIENTS.A GROUP OF EMPLOYEES CREATED THE C.A.R.E. (CARING, AIDING AND RESPONDING TO EMPLOYEES) FUND TO ASSIST EMPLOYEES WHO DEMONSTRATE A FINANCIAL EMERGENCY BEYOND THEIR CONTROL AND PROVIDE THEM WITH LIMITED ASSISTANCE. THIS FUND CONTINUES TO BE AVAILABLE TO EMPLOYEES WHO DEMONSTRATE A NEED FOR LIMITED EMERGENCY FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE.RIVERWOODS MANCHESTER IS LOCATED IN A BEAUTIFUL RURAL AREA OF THE CITY. RESIDENTS AS WELL AS PEOPLE IN OUR SURROUNDING AREA ARE ABLE TO ENJOY WALKING THROUGH OUR CAMPUS AND ON OUR TRAILS.

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. Showing the 10 most recent; the API carries the rest.

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

Not present in the most recent drop.

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.
