Overview
Mission
Hogs and Kisses is an animal sanctuary. Our mission is to create the best possible life for farm animals while inspiring compassion for all living beings.
What it reported doing in 2025
EDUCATION AND OUTREACH-Our mission is to create the best possible life for farm animals while inspiring compassion for all living beings. In 2022, we continued educational programs, such as visitor tours, volunteering, and a free video series on YouTube called "Beet Around the Barn," plus newly offered an online Adopt a Classroom series for elementary students and joined a community networking group to teach about animal welfare. In 2023, Hogs & Kisses held our highest attended annual event called the Barnwarming. We were able to educate the local community on our mission, which is ultimately to educate the public on compassionate animal care for farm animals, the positive impacts of veganism on animals and the environment, and supporting local wildlife. In 2024, Hogs & Kisses continued our mission and was interviewed for a couple of podcasts to discuss animal welfare in sanctuaries. We attended multiple festivals to interact with our communities and educate on our mission. We collaborated with our local college clubs at the University of Virginia, who brought students wanting to learn how to advocate for animals and lend a helping hand volunteering. In 2025, Hogs & Kisses expanded its community outreach by participating in four festivals and hosting three on-site educational events, collectively engaging approximately 600 individuals in animal welfare education. Additional impact was achieved through on-site BnB experience, where guests participated in animal meet-and-greets and learned about the organization's mission, with all proceeds directly supporting animal care.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 100% 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. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown and expenses are high relative to revenue.
