Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

Improve the quality of life for animals and their families in our community and reduce the number of animals surrendered to the animal shelter.

Kitty Clip and Pit Stop. Low cost spay/neuter vouchers for dogs and cats to be redeemed at local clinics. Our goal is to reduce the number of animals brought to the local shelter who might be euthanized. 1508 cats were spay/neutered in 2024. 140 dogs were spay/neutered in 2024.

Expenses $95,631
No Empty Bowl pet food pantry. Started in March 2020 to address the need for pet food help due to the loss of income due to the pandemic. Continued since this is a reason some people surrender their pets to the shelter and our goal is to keep pets in their homes. We provided pet food for 3,268 pets in 2024.

Expenses $51,161
Rescue/Medical sponsorships. Provided to Wake County Animal Center, adopters and rescues to help with costly medical expenses for animals at the center. Without our assistance these animals may be euthanized. 144 animals were sponsored in 2024.

Expenses $48,946
Through Community Outreach we helped 75 pets and their families directly with pet food, pet housing and vet care.

Expenses $5,720
Heal a Heart provides sponsorships for adopted dogs who are heartworm positive to give them a better chance at adoption. 44 dogs were treated with our sponsorship in 2024.

Expenses $17,903
DEGA medical veterinary care in disaster relief area

Expenses $5,000

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
