Chestnut Hill Benevolent Association's own IRS Form 990 filing for the fiscal year ended 31 December 2024, read via ProPublica's Nonprofit Explorer, reports total revenue of 10,572,124 US dollars against total expenses of 10,114,369 US dollars for its Christian Science nursing care operations at Chestnut Hill, Massachusetts, a modest surplus of roughly 458,000 dollars for the year.
Reading a federal tax filing rather than a promotional figure gives this entry a form of verification the organization's own marketing material would not: a Form 990 is filed under penalty of perjury and made public specifically so an outside reader can check a nonprofit's finances independently, which is exactly the route this figure took, through ProPublica's public database rather than through the Association's own website.
The scale those numbers describe, revenue and expenses both above ten million dollars, is substantial for a single nursing care facility, consistent with an institution that has operated continuously since 1916 and has run as an independent, tax-exempt organization since 1982, more than four decades of continuous operation under its present governance structure.
