Overview
Mission
Our mission is to rescue, rehabilitate, and find homes for injured, dumped, or unwanted domestic ducks and geese in the mid Ohio region.
What it reported doing in 2025
Duck and geese that were abandoned at parks, on ponds, on roadways, etc., were caught and brought to the rescue. Ducks and geese unwanted by their owners were accepted by the rescue. Ducks and geese are housed at the rescue until suitable adoptive homes can be found. These birds require feed and other supplies.
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.
