Overview

Mission

Pawsitively Saved Rescue exists to promote animal welfare through community awareness, education, and responsible pet adoptions. Pawsitively Saved Rescue promotes animal spay/neutering and is dedicated to rescuing and rehoming dogs made homeless for any reason.

Operating model

Revenue model
Other-operating. 61% of the money available for current operations came from other operating revenue.
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

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of voting board members are independent and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
