Overview
Mission
The mission of the organization is to make the public more aware of homeless, neglected and abandoned pets in the Fort Worth area and to raise funds so that these animals may be rescued, fostered and ultimately adopted into loving homes.
What it reported doing in 2013
The organization co-hosted events to bring public awareness to the needs of abandoned and rescued animals in Tarrant County. Additionally, the organization paid veterinary bills for needy animals.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
- 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 reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
