Overview
Mission
Happy hooves equine rescue is a southern Illinois facility dedicated to rescuing, rehabilitating and providing renewed purpose in life for unwanted, neglected, abused and abandoned horses of all ages. Happy hooves mission is to save horses in dire need (in all varieties, from minis to thoroughbreds), bring them back to peak health and match those rehabilitated horses with educated, responsible and caring owners and forever homes. Outside of meeting the very basic needs of the horses (the staff is entirely volunteers based), any additional resources generated from happy hooves ongoing activities helps to educate visitors and volunteers from surrounding communities about the caring and rehabilitation of rescued horses.
What it reported doing in 2018
Rescuing, rehabilitating and providing renewed life to unwanted, neglected, abused or abandoned horses of all ages.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Earned-program. 66% 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 a large share of total spending goes to programs. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
