4a (Code:   ) (Expenses $ 143,070,353 including grants of $ 0 ) (Revenue $ 161,252,765 )
Front Porch owns and operates continuing care retirement communities, other multilevel retirement communities and other operations providing services that enhance the quality of life for those served through independent retirement living, assisted living, skilled nursing, social services, affordable housing and contract management of subsidized housing. Through our affordable housing subsidiary CARING Housing Ministries, we serve thousands of residents at communities throughout the Western United States. We strive to create safe and comfortable places that our residents can feel proud to call home. Our mission is to tailor our services to our residents, treating them as people rather than tenants. We understand the sometimes-difficult circumstances of those we serve, and look to meeting their needs while preserving their dignity. We serve low-income families with children who often require far more than a roof over their heads. We reach out into the community to collaborate with others to teach parenting and basic English and help look for jobs and provide secure transportation. We also partner with outside groups to bring grant money to elderly residents in order to minimize their financial risk and improve their access to transportation socialization, activities of daily living, and medical care. Continued in Schedule O.
4b (Code:   ) (Expenses $ 2,060,937 including grants of $ 0 ) (Revenue $ 0 )
Each year, the Corporation provides services to residents with limited means and benefits to the broader community. The approximate cost of such services for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2012, was $2.1 million.
4c (Code:   ) (Expenses $ 2,472,000 including grants of $ 0 ) (Revenue $ 0 )
Front Porch accepts Medi-Cal patients for which it is reimbursed at amounts not sufficient to fully cover the cost of health care services provided. The estimated cost of providing such underreimbursed care in excess of reimbursements received was $2.5 million for the year ended March 31, 2012.
