Financial health
We do not score finances when yearly spending is very small or the return has too little detail. The ratios stop meaning much at that size.

Governance
This organization files the short tax form, which does not ask about boards, policies or audits. That is normal for a small charity and is not a mark against it.

Impact evidence
Describes programs. Its tax return describes what it does but we have found no measurable results in it.
Programs described in its return (3)
- We were able to spay and neuter 52 dogs and 35 cats in our second year of 2025. We also had our vet give the rabies shot to everyone wishing to get it. I was able to purchase the yearly Da2PP from our vet. This protects against parvo and other diseases. I am able to administer this shot myself to anybody wishing for their pet to receive it. Its 28 cheaper per shot to give this one myself instead of the vet giving it. We are able to stretch the money further this way. I made house calls transported dogs and cats for the elderly and those without transportation. I would say this program is a huge success and really taking off. Female dogs can have 2 litters of puppies per year and female cats can have up to 3 litters per year.
- Later this year we added the adoption portion of our program. I fostered dogs for another organization for years so went out on my own this year. Since it was so late in the year we only did 14 but are already on fire for 2026.
- We also started a food pantry for people in the community. Times are tough and every little bit helps. I donate bags of dog food to families in need.
