Program accomplishments
- We provide veterinary care and supplies for animals in our foster program while seeking adoptive homes. Veterinary care includes routine wellness items (e.g. parasite prevention, combo testing, blood tests, urinalysis for older animals, and dental cleanings) ; spay and neuter surgery; and remedial medical care due to illness and injury (e.g. surgery, cardiac evaluations, ophthalmology care, dental extractions). We microchip every animal upon intake to help ensure that they will be returned to either us or their adopters should they go missing. We purchase supplies (e.g. food,litter,beds,carriers,toys) used for the animals while they are in our foster care. In 2025, we found adoptive homes for 331 animals and spent, on average $304 per animal for care.Expenses $100,621
- Oversight for our foster and adoption program plus managing 2 public adoption venues located at the East Fairfax PetSmart store and the Pet Marketplace and Adoption Center (PetMAC) in Washington, DC. Revenue is derived from adoption fees, which range from $100 for a special needs or senior cat to $200 for a healthy young cat or $300 for a pair of healthy cats. In 2025, we found adoptive homes for 331 animals and earned an average of $159 per animal from adoption fees. Our average expenses per animal were $631 in core program costs $154 overhead costs $785 in total. The gap between average expenses per animal and average revenue per animal was $785 - $159 $626; we covered this gap with donations from the general public and private grants.Expenses $108,070 · revenue $52,505
- Education of the general public on the importance of spaying/neutering pets to decrease the number of homeless animals in our community. In addition,we provide guidance for proper pet care and promote awareness of the plight of homeless animals. Education takes many forms: via our website and social media platforms; through email and hardcopy newsletter campaigns, reaching out to our adopters and supporters; and in person. We are also dedicated to mentoring the youth in our community in an effort to instill in them a passion for community service.
