Overview

Mission

Hope animal rescue is a no kill rescue whose mission is to rescue, protect, and provide hope to animals as we search for loving homes for strays and neglected animals. Hope pays for all the supplies and services needed until forever homes are found for the animals.

What it reported doing in 2024

Our mission is to provide hope to those animals abandoned, neglected, or surrendered. Hope continues to work with other states taking animals from high kill shelters and areas that are overpopulated. There were 28 transports from Oklahoma and 5 transports from North Carolina. Hope also networks with other rescue in Iowa and Minnesota to make the transports efficient rescuing as many animals as possible which helps share costs among rescues. Hope also started a tnr program that helps local communities in central Iowa manage feral cat populations and was able to rescue several kittens caught in the traps that could be converted to loving kittens that found forever homes.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 61% 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

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Program spending has declined or grown slowly and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
