Overview

Mission

Ninna's road to rescue is a non-profit organization whose mission is to rescue and re-home small-breed dogs, to include senior dogs and dogs in kill shelters; to provide assistance to pet owners needing to re-home their pet via our adoption assistance program; and to provide responsible pet ownership education.

What it reported doing in 2024

Rescue and re-homing small-breed dogs including veterinary care and shelter.

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. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
