Overview

Mission

To rescue and rehabilitate abused, abandoned, and/or neglected horses and other animals to rehome and/or use in a therapeutic or educational setting to promote the mental or physical health, healing, and well-being of individuals physically or mentally handicapped, foster children, at risk youth, veterans, senior citizens, or anyone desiring the company of said 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. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
