Overview
Mission
Rescue, rehabilitate and train animals for future adoptions.
What it reported doing in 2024
We provide a safe no-kill facility for rescued animals then seek to find them an appropriate home through adoption. We look to place each animal in a home that will best suit their needs and the adopting family's need. In 2021, over 250 dogs and cats were rescued and placed with families.
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. Program spending has declined or grown slowly and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
