Overview
Mission
Dedicated to rescuing unwanted, sometimes sick or mistreated animals by providing rehabilitation through vet care and training and finding permanent loving homes. To promote animal welfare and prevent cruelty to animals. To educate the public about humane treatment of animals including good husbandry, routine veterinary care as well as promote sterilization of animals to prevent over population
What it reported doing in 2025
In 2025 140 unwanted dogs and 3 unwanted cats were taken into our care, given vaccinations, sterilized, microchipped, tested for parasite and disease as well as given any other needed medical or behavioral care given so they could be adopted out into permanent loving homes.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Earned-program. 81% 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
SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and program spending has grown recently. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
