Overview

Mission

Provide shelter for homeless animals and prevent animal cruelty

What it reported doing in 2023

Provide an animal shelter where homeless animals can be brought to be taken care of and adopted. Provide clinics on pet care and vacinations.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
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 assets have declined or grown slowly.
