Mission and programs · 2024

• Our organization has been rescuing and rehabilitating wild animals for well over 40 years. Concerned citizens and government agencies bring us over 7,000 sick, orphaned, and injured animals each year including confiscated and displaced wild animals. With the help of trained staff, volunteers and local vets, WCA provides medical services to these animals. Once the animals have recovered from their injuries or illness, or have grown and learned to hunt and fend for themselves. They are released into the wild, giving them a second chance at life. We are regulated by the Federal and California Departments of Fish and Wildlife. Our work is entirely supported by donations.WCA was started as a community service organization by prominent Sacramento naturalists including MB Goodier, Effie Yeaw, and William B. Pond in 1975 and incorporated on May 18, 1978. On September 10, 1981, Wildlife Care Association became a Federal Exempt 501c(3) non-profit community service organization.

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. 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.

California fundraising campaigns

Campaigns run by paid fundraisers, commercial coventurers and thrift stores naming this organization, as California published them. Both figures are as filed, and what the first one counts depends on the campaign type — a coventurer or a thrift store files its own sales rather than money collected for the charity. The 990 reports this only as a yearly total, never per campaign.

Amounts are as filed and do not add up: a commercial coventurer reports one promotion's whole gross once for each charity that shared in it. A campaign may also name more than one registered charity, in which case it appears on each.
