Overview

Mission

Mcha supports and advocates for the welfare of companion animals and the human-animal bond through anon-profit veterinary clinic, education, and community outreach programs.

What it reported doing in 2025

Outreach - in 2025, mcha's mobile clinics served 700 pets across underserved areas of monroe county, delivering vital vaccine and wellness services directly to those who need it most. Our pet food pantry distributed 30,000 pounds of pet food to hungry pets. We provided 2,400 days of crisis housing for pets whose owners were in temporary crisis, ensuring they remained safe and cared for. Through our street outreach program, we delivered veterinary wellness care to 500 pets belonging to individuals who are unhoused or experiencing housing instability. Additionally, mcha issued 339 spay/neuter assistance vouchers to help reduce financial barriers to essential preventative care.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
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.
  • Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
