Overview

Mission

Our goal is to end the euthanasia of adoptable cats and dogs by promoting and supporting programs that have a positive effect on companion animals. Our goals: 1. Increase animal adoption and rehoming of homeless and domesticated pets by promoting pet health and animal welfare services that encourage responsible pet care and guardianship for our youth, adults, and families. 2. Engage the community through use of technology and social media platforms to increase involvement and support on improving and protecting the lives of animals. 3. Champion humane education and cruelty prevention of both domestic and wild animals through community outreach. 4. Foster business and local partnerships that provide financial support and veterinary care to aid the medical needs of sick and injured animals and fundraising for other unmet needs of the Friends of the Shelter Program.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 68% 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 expenses are high relative to revenue.
