Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

LOCATED IN RALEIGH, NC, THE SPCA OF WAKE COUNTY WORKS IN OVER HALF THE STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA THROUGH COLLABORATIVE PARTNERSHIPS THAT SAVE PETS AND HELP PEOPLE. SIGNIFICANT ACTIVITIES INCLUDE: DECREASING THE NUMBER OF ANIMALS ENTERING ANIMAL SHELTERS, INCREASING THE NUMBER OF ANIMALS LEAVING THESE SHELTERS, AND CHANGING THE HEARTS AND MINDS OF OUR COMMUNITY TO VALUE ALL COMPANION ANIMALS. OUR MISSION IS TO TRANSFORM THE LIVES OF PETS AND PEOPLE THROUGH PROTECTION, CARE, EDUCATION, AND ADOPTION. OUR VISION IS TO CREATE A HUMANE COMMUNITY.

Activities or mission (Part I)

TO TRANSFORM THE LIVES OF PETS AND PEOPLE THROUGH PROTECTION, CARE, EDUCATION AND ADOPTION.

  • SHELTERING, CARE AND ADOPTION: BETWEEN JULY 2024 AND JUNE 2025, THE SPCA OF WAKE COUNTY TOOK IN A TOTAL OF 3,896 HOMELESS PETS. A COMMITMENT TO COLLABORATION BETWEEN SPCA WAKE AND AREA ANIMAL SHELTERS CREATED A LIFESAVING SHELTER TRANSFER PROGRAM, AND 2,544 PETS WERE TRANSFERRED FROM PARTNER SHELTERS INTO SPCA WAKE'S CARE DURING FY25. THESE TRANSFERRED PETS REDUCE SHELTER PET EUTHANASIA REGIONALLY AND POSITIVELY IMPACT EACH SHELTER'S CAPACITY FOR CARE. DIVERSION PROGRAM: AN ADDITIONAL 1,342 PETS WERE TAKEN IN FROM INDIVIDUALS TO PREVENT THOSE PETS FROM ENTERING THE ALREADY OVERBURDENED ANIMAL SHELTER SYSTEM. A ROBUST FOSTER CARE PROGRAM ALLOWS SPCA WAKE TO RESPOND QUICKLY TO EMERGENCY PET INTAKE NEEDS, WHETHER FROM PARTNER SHELTERS OR DISASTER RELIEF EFFORTS. APPROXIMATELY 54% OF ALL INCOMING ANIMALS WERE CARED FOR IN A VOLUNTEER FOSTER HOME FOR A BRIEF TIME.SPCA WAKE'S VETERINARY AND BEHAVIOR RESOURCES MAKE IT ONE OF THE FEW SHELTERS IN NC THAT CAN TREAT AND REHABILITATE A LARGE VOLUME OF SICK, INJURED OR BEHAVIORALLY CHALLENGED PETS. THIS SAFETY NET PROGRAM IS ESPECIALLY HELPFUL IN ELIMINATING EUTHANASIA AS THE ONLY OPTION FOR INJURED PETS AT AREA SHELTER PARTNERS OPERATING WITH LIMITED RESOURCES. INNOVATIVE ADOPTION PROGRAMMING REHOMED 3,797 PETS IN FY25 AND SPCA WAKE'S LIVE RELEASE RATE WAS 97.39%. SPCA WAKE WILL NEVER EUTHANIZE A PET DUE TO LACK OF SPACE AND IS COMMITTED TO SAVING EVERY ANIMAL TAKEN IN. SPCA WAKE ONLY EUTHANIZES PETS THAT ARE TOO ILL OR TOO BEHAVIORALLY UNSOUND TO BE REHABILITATED AND ADOPTED. MATCHING LOVING FAMILIES WITH SHELTER PETS IS THE HEART OF WHAT SPCA WAKE DOES DAILY

  • PREVENTION & SPAY/NEUTER: PREVENTING UNWANTED PETS FROM BEING BORN IS THE MOST EFFECTIVE AND MOST HUMANE METHOD OF DECREASING THE OVERWHELMING NUMBERS OF HOMELESS PETS ENTERING AREA ANIMAL SHELTERS. IN FY25, SPCA WAKE SPAY/NEUTER PROGRAMS EFFECTIVELY IMPACTED THREE KEY AREAS OF NEED. FIRST, THE SAVING LIVES SPAY/NEUTER CLINIC ENABLES SPCA WAKE TO TRANSFER THOUSANDS OF UNSTERILIZED ANIMALS FROM SURROUNDING RURAL SHELTERS WHO HAVE FEW SPAY/NEUTER RESOURCES. THOSE PETS ARE ADOPTED THROUGH THE SPCA, FREEING SHELTER PARTNERS TO USE LIMITED RESOURCES FOR REMAINING ANIMALS. SECOND, DOZENS OF AREA ANIMAL RESCUE GROUPS ALSO EFFECTIVELY UTILIZE THIS LOW-COST SPAY/NEUTER OPTION AND TAKE ANIMALS BACK INTO THEIR CARE FOR ADOPTION. THIRD, THE NEED OF THE PETS AND PEOPLE IN OUR COMMUNITY. THE LOW-COST PRICE POINT PROVIDED BY THE SAVING LIVES SPAY/NEUTER CLINIC ENABLES FAMILIES IN NEED TO ACCESS THIS VITAL SERVICE. IN TOTAL, SPCA WAKE FACILITATED OVER 2,648 SURGERIES IN FY25. SPCA WAKE ALSO PARTNERS WITH VETERINARY PRACTICES IN THE COMMUNITY TO PROVIDE VOUCHER-DISCOUNTS FOR SPAY/NEUTER SURGERY AT THOSE PARTICIPATING HOSPITALS.

  • COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT: COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT AND EDUCATION ARE THE FOUNDATIONS FOR LASTING CHANGE FOR ANIMALS. THE LARGE NUMBER OF PETS EUTHANIZED IN AREA SHELTERS IS A SYMPTOM OF BIGGER ISSUE: A LACK OF THE RESOURCES NECESSARY TO KEEP PETS IN HOMES AND OUT OF SHELTERS. BY RAISING AWARENESS ABOUT PET HOMELESSNESS AS A COMMUNITY ISSUE AND ENGAGING PEOPLE IN LIFESAVING EFFORTS, SPCA WAKE IS ADDRESSING THE PROBLEM AT THE SOURCE. SPCA WAKE PROGRAMS DIRECTED AT HELPING ANIMALS BY HELPING THE PEOPLE WHO CARE FOR THEM INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING INITIATIVES: A DEDICATED, STAFFED PET HELPLINE, WHICH RECEIVED 7,444 REQUESTS FOR ASSISTANCE IN FY25 FROM COMMUNITY MEMBERS WHO WERE FACING ANIMAL CARE RELATED ISSUES. THE PET HELPLINE WAS DESIGNED TO MAKE IT EASY FOR PEOPLE TO FIND AND ACCESS PET RESOURCES AS WELL AS TO PROVIDE INSIGHT INTO OUR COMMUNITY'S GREATEST NEEDS FOR SERVICES AND ORGANIZATIONAL PROGRAMS.SPCA WAKE'S PET FOOD ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS HELP KEEP PETS IN THEIR HOMES AND OUT OF AREA ANIMAL SHELTERS. IN FY25, SPCA WAKE PROVIDED 233,286 PET MEALS TO LOW-INCOME HOUSEHOLDS AND HOMEBOUND SENIOR CITIZENS. THESE FAMILIES AND INDIVIDUALS RECEIVE PET FOOD AND SUPPLIES THROUGH OUR PARTNERSHIPS WITH LOCAL HUMAN AND ANIMAL SERVICE AGENCIES.SPCA WAKE'S LOW-COST WELLNESS CLINICS HELP PET OWNERS IN OUR COMMUNITY RECEIVE AFFORDABLE, FUNDAMENTAL VET CARE LIKE VACCINES AND MICROCHIPS. IN FY25, SPCA WAKE HOSTED FIVE CLINICS WHICH PROVIDED 1,670 PETS FROM 943 FAMILIES WITH THESE MUCH-NEEDED SERVICES.

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. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us. 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. Showing the 10 most recent; the API carries the rest.

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.

Grants received

The 10 largest by cash amount. The API serves every itemized grant.

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.
