Overview

Mission

The adoption center ny, inc. Is a not-for-profit 501(c)3 all-volunteer organization dedicated to the rescue, rehabilitation, and rehoming of puppies, dogs, kittens, and cats, which have been abandoned, abused, neglected, sick, or otherwise unwanted. These are wonderful animals who would otherwise have been destroyed either in kill shelters, or die by the cruelty of a homeless life on the streets. We also work to educate people and stimulate interest and concern in the prevention of abuse and neglect of cats and dogs via our own efforts as well as cooperate, co-sponsor and otherwise engage in concerted action with various recognized organizations, both private and governmental agencies, in fighting the abuse and neglect of animals.

What it reported doing in 2024

Additionally, we support local tnr programs for feral cats providing information to their caretakers on where to get low cost spay/newter, how to set up or purchase shelters and feeding shelters, and when colonies are located on private property (supremarkets and the like) we provide suggestions on how to gain permission to come onto the property and care for the cats. In all, the adoption center rescued and adopted 89 dogs during the year, and rescued and adopted 3 cats. In addition to rescue and adoption services, the organization assists in rehoming pets where pets are transferred to a new home. The organization provides educational seminars and events at local schools.

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. Program spending has declined or grown slowly and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
