As Director of FIND's Community Advocate Program, he assisted the elderly in both securing necessary services and preventing the loss of services. From 1973 through 1978, he also directed FIND's efforts to assist the elderly residents of West Side and Times Square single room occupancy (SRO) hotels who faced massive displacement caused by redevelopment in the area. Mr. Wintermute and his staff, working with legal services attorneys, were able to organize residents of numerous SRO's and prevent illegal evictions. In those cases where displacement occurred, relocation benefits were secured from the owners. Mr. Wintermute also led a successful effort by Project FIND to take over the management of a 400 room, Times Square hotel, which they were then able to use as a temporary residence for the displaced elderly. A subsequent effort, also directed by Mr. Wintermute, resulted in the take over, purchase and renovation of a similar sized hotel into permanent housing, with services, for the displaced elderly.

In 1978, Mr. Wintermute was named Associate Director of Housing for the National Council of Senior Citizens, headquartered in Washington, D.C.. As Associate Director, and then directed NCSC's housing development and management program. In that capacity Mr. Wintermute helped develop and manage more than 3500 units of low income senior citizen housing throughout the nation.

In 1982, Mr. Wintermute left NCSC to start his own consulting business in Ann Arbor, Michigan. During the next ten years, he assisted a number of nonprofit organizations in the development and construction of over 3,000 units of elderly housing, as well as providing strategic and organizational planning services.

The Foundation is privately endowed and was established in 1925 to support programs for the elderly in the Detroit metropolitan area.
