Overview
Mission
The rescue inn, inc. ("tri") is a foster-based rescue organization dedicated to saving the lives of dogs in need. Tri is run by a dedicated group of volunteers who are passionate about four-legged friends. Tri's mission is to save dogs from high kill shelters and abuse/neglect situations and place those animals into loving and permanent homes. Tri promotes responsible animal ownership and provides medical treatment, foster care and training to unwanted, abandoned, lost or surrendered animals.
What it reported doing in 2024
The rescue inn's adoption program provided medical treatment, foster care, food, grooming, supplies, training and other program related support to 113 dogs in 2024. Dogs received vetting that consisted of age-appropriate shots, spay/neuter, fecal/deworming, heartworm test/prevention (age dependent), microchip, flea prevention as needed and other medical surgeries as needed. Dogs were pulled from numerous local kill shelters, puppy mills, transferred in as owner surrenders from owners unable to provide for their support and maintenance, and from other abuse/neglect situations.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 61% 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
SUPPORTED - 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 some filed totals do not add up.
