Overview

Mission

Low-cost spay/neuter program for dogs & cats

What it reported doing in 2017

As an incentive for pet owners, in an effort to help control the growing pet population problem, we offer a low-cost spay/neuter program for dogs & cats. In 2017 we neutered 362 pets. (over 12,943 since we began in 1985)

Operating model

Revenue model: Donor-supported. 88% 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. A relatively small share of total spending goes to programs and expenses are high relative to revenue.
