Summary of the Filing
Where the work happens
First Program Service Accomplishment Rescue/Animal Care. This was our largest program area in 2024 by far. It includes such specific services as S/N (spay-neuter) of companion animals; TNR (trap-neuter-return) for community cats; community cat caregiving; rescue of ill, injured, homeless and at-risk animals; veterinary care; transport of…
Second Program Service Accomplishment Education. The pandemic's ongoing impact continues with many people estimating that animal welfare has been set back at least a decade or two. And for many in the field, the general public's lack of awareness continues to be surprising and discouraging.
Third Program Service Accomplishment Advocacy. Advocacy is a slog in Kentucky, with our state ranking dead last in the Animal Legal Defense Fund's ranking for over 10 years. While no longer dead last, we have remained in the worst five states for our animal protection laws, coming in at 47th for 2024.

Names, privacy, and removal requests More
The names, titles, and compensation shown on this page are reproduced from IRS Form 990 filings, which are public records.
Philanthropy.org does not alter the content of those filings. All information appears exactly as reported by the filing organization for the tax year shown.
We publish only information contained in the public IRS filing — and less than the filing contains. Our profile pages do not display street addresses, telephone numbers, personal email addresses, or other personal contact information, even where the filing includes them.
Many people share the same name. A name shown on this page reflects only what one organization reported in one IRS filing for one tax year. It should not be interpreted as identifying any other individual with the same or a similar name.
If you are no longer affiliated with the organization, your name will generally stop appearing in future IRS filings once the organization no longer reports you. Pages for tax years in which you were reported remain published because those filings remain part of the public record.
Philanthropy.org does not alter or remove IRS filing records. Removing a page from this website would not remove the underlying IRS filing, which remains publicly available from the IRS and other publishers of the same information.
If you believe the IRS filing itself is inaccurate, corrections must be made by the filing organization or the IRS directly.
