Overview

Mission

To help disadvantaged animals (in the us and abroad) in the form of spay/neuter/medical clinics, finding them homes, providing them with food and shelter, and other forms of aid.

What it reported doing in 2024

During 2024, the clinics provided a total of 588 spay/neuters and 102 wellness exams. Ccd4 (4/27/24) performed 99 surgeries. Sxm2 (may 2024) provided 250 surgeries. Ccd5 (9/28/24) provided 137 surgeries. Gt3 (oct/nov 2024) performed 95 surgeries and 102 wellness exams.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 95% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and expenses are high relative to revenue.
