Mission
Rescue homeless, abandoned animals and animals from local shelters. Get them healthy and find them loving and caring homes through our adoption network
Activities or mission (Part I)
Working to help the stray animal population of the Houston area through spay and neuter programs and transport adoptions. Lola's pulls animals from the Harris County Animal Shelter and other local shelters and finds them loving new homes through our adoption network. Most of the dogs are transported to Wisconsin via Lola's vehicles and adopted out locally there.

Adoption Program - Lola's Lucky Day transports dogs from Texas to Wisconsin via their transport vehicles. Each animal transported has a Texas Veterinary Health Certificate. Each dog is up to date on vaccines and shots. IN 2024, the rescue transported over 1,050 dogs to adoptive families in the Wisconsin area.
Expenses $82,555 · Revenue $45,000

Dog Comfort Program - Lola's Lucky Day provides the rescued dogs with food, water, shelter, bedding, and plenty of toys. The rescue also provides the dogs' caretakers with all the supplies for cleaning and taking care of the dog. Fosters (dogs' caretakers) are given crates and any other supplies they need to be comfortable with the dog. Lola's Lucky Day also has one house where up to five dogs stay at a time. Lola's Lucky Day is a foster based program and fostered over 1,000 dogs in 2024.

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. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all.
Grants made
No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.

Other IRS files
Auto-Revocation List
Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.
Publication 78
Listed as of 13 October 2026, under deductibility PC.
These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
