We match the street line and ZIP code as the IRS gives them, ignoring case and outer spaces and nothing else, so "AVE" and "AVENUE" count as different streets and this list can miss some. A shared address can mean related organizations or a shared office, but it can also be a registered agent, a mail drop or a service provider holding mail for unrelated clients. It is not, by itself, evidence that two organizations are connected.

Mission and programs · 2024

• Adoption and SurrenderAHS helps thousands of dogs, cats, and critters in need find loving homes each year. AHS's commitment to open admission guarantees safe refuge to every animal that comes to us for help. Innovations and investments in medical treatment and behavioral rehabilitation ensure that we can help animals with even the most significant challenges. As a result, AHS now places almost 90 percent of the animals entrusted to its care, up from 59 percent in 2008. The success of AHS's shelter program is reflected in three key measures: the total number of animals admitted for rehoming, the percentage of animals with live placements (placement rate), and the average length of stay in shelter. In the year ended June 30, 2025: 12,331 companion animals came into AHS facilities. 10,814 of those animals more than 78% were placed in homes, reunited with owners, or released to other organizations. The average length of stay for animals in shelter was 12.7 days.Overall placements included 9,332 animals adopted, 793 animals reunited with owners, 569 cats returned to field, and 158 animals transferred to partner organizations. Robust medical and behavioral programs contribute to this continued success: 7,188 animals received spay/neuter surgeries before adoption. Spay/neuter and other non-essential surgeries were prohibited by executive order for six weeks at the onset of the pandemic. AHS veterinarians diagnosed and treated 13,853 conditions. AHS Shelter Behavior programs readied 3,109 cats and dogs for placement.

• Community EngagementAHS works with individuals and organizations across Minnesota to create a more humane world for animals, including: Outreach to under-engaged communities, including education programs and free or low-cost services that empower low-income pet owners and improve the lives of pets. A pet food pantry that distributed more than 22 tons of cat and dog food and 4 tons of cat litter to Minnesota families in need. Temporary pet housing that provided foster care for 91 animals from 72 families experiencing temporary hardship. Education programs that foster humane values and compassion for animals, including day camps, a youth club, and other activities for kids and families serving 5,264 participants. A Community Cats program focused on reducing euthanasia and providing alternative solutions for feral and free-roaming cats through return-to-field and trap-neuter-return programs. This program served 569 cats. A robust volunteer program that enlists 1,018 active volunteers in providing animal enrichment, foster care, shelter support, and other assistance. In addition, 264 volunteers provided foster care for 1,170 animals before adoption.

  Expenses $1,920,259 · Revenue $429,516

• Pet ServicesAHS offers programs to serve all stages of an animal's life, including: A free Pet Helpline (952-HELP-PET) that handled 72,508 incoming calls, providing caring, compassionate advice and resources to help with everything from solving behavior problems to finding pet-friendly housing. Compassionate end-of-life services, including owner-requested euthanasia for 969 pets and a weekly pet loss support group. Online resources for pet owners, including a pet resource library at animalhumanesociety.org.

• RescueAiding animals in critical situations is core to AHS's work. AHS's humane agents respond to reports of possible animal cruelty or neglect throughout Minnesota. They receive reports about animals that are lacking proper food, water, and shelter. They also participate in larger, more complex cases involving cruelty, with on-site investigations, forensics, and seizures aiding law enforcement agencies that seek AHS assistance. During the year ended June 30, 2025, AHS's Humane Investigations unit received 1,210 requests for assistance and opened 1,031 formal cases. Follow-up investigation and forensics of these cases took AHS agents into 77 of Minnesota's 87 counties. Those investigations impacted the lives of 7,700 animals.AHS took in 2,011 animals from other animal welfare organizations throughout Minnesota and other states, finding homes for animals that would otherwise face euthanasia in overcrowded facilities.

  Expenses $320,346

• Affordable Veterinary CareAHS's Veterinary Centers in St. Paul and Golden Valley provide low-cost spay/neuter surgeries and full-service veterinary care on a sliding fee scale, expanding care to animals whose options would otherwise be limited.In the year ended June 30, 2025, AHS's vet centers provided 18,502 services to the public, including 8,964 medical and wellness appointments, 1,083 dental and specialty surgeries, and 8,455 spay/neuter surgeries.

Officers and directors · 2024

As listed in Part VII of the 2024 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

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.
