Overview

Mission

All about animals rescue's mission is no more homeless pets.

What it reported doing in 2024

Aaar operates a full service spay/neuter clinic operated by well trained, caring licensed veterinarians, veterinary technicians and administrative staff. Volunteers assist with clinic activities and know that they are making a difference in the lives of many animals as well as the people that love them. Aaar spayed/neutered over 36,000 cats and dogs for pet owners and rescues in 2022.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 95% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
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. Expenses are high relative to revenue and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
