Overview
Mission
Our mission is to provide for the safety and well being of rescued pigs and other farm animals that are difficult to place in traditional shelters. We are not focused on future adoptions but rather we strive to provide these animals with a sanctuary to live out their lives happily in an environment that is as natural and free from stress as possible while actively promoting public education and advocacy.
What it reported doing in 2025
Provide transport services to other rescues and individuals that need to move pigs from rescue situations or just need help moving to a new location or for needed vet care. This program launched in 2023 and will continue to grow as we define needs and identify solutions. In 2025 we launched training and care consulting to help owners that think they need to rehome realize that keeping their pig may be possible which is our ultimate goal. We want to keep pigs in their homes!
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 99% 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. Revenue has declined or grown slowly and expenses are high relative to revenue.
