Overview

Mission

To provide care and housing for impounded, surrendered and stray animals on camano island.

What it reported doing in 2024

Casa operates a shelter that cares for cats and dogs as well as the occasional pocket pet until they are returned to their owner or can find a "forever home." we also assist other shelters by taking animals that are facing euthanasia and/or could benefit from a change of environment. Every animal that is adopted is spayed or neutered and microchipped.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 61% 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.
  • Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of total spending goes to programs. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
