Overview
Mission
Animal Rescue, Adoption, and Relocation Service
What it reported doing in 2024
Over 225 animals were rescued in Del Rio, Texas, and then adopted or relocated to other animal welfare programs. These animals were provided the necessary medical treatment before relocation or adoption. A small increase is expected in 2025 because there is little to no support from law enforcement pertaining to the enforcement of federal, state, and local animal welfare laws.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 100% 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. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown and expenses are high relative to revenue.
