Overview

Mission

SNORT Rescue is an all-volunteer rescue based in the Northeast, founded in early 2011. We rescue, rehabilitate, and place brachycephalic or 'short-nosed' dogs into loving forever homes.

What it reported doing in 2024

Adoption and Application Fees

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.

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.
