Community Impact

We’re transforming animal welfare in our city.

Our efforts helped Indianapolis Animal Care Services improve its save rate to over 89% in 2025.

We had the best year, thanks to you!

$833,442 raised for animals in need

Your generosity is showing.

Almost 60% of our funding comes from individual donations that we receive online and through the mail. The rest of our funding is split fairly evenly between special events, grants from private foundations, and investment income. We do not receive any government funding.

2025 Funding Sources


Our impact is growing.

Without a full-time on-site vet, we stepped up big time in 2025 to cover an unprecedented number of emergency medical cases at IACS. Our medical care budget rose to over $330,000 and we’re grateful for your support during an incredibly challenging year when our funding was needed more than ever.
