EIN 46-3006343 · Animal Protection and Welfare
What they do
ALL RMR DOGS AND CATS ARE HOUSED IN FOSTER HOMES WHERE THEY ARE PROVIDED WITH AN ENORMOUS AMOUNT OF LOVE AND MEDICAL ATTENTION THAT MAY BE REQUIRED TO ENSURE THAT THEY ARE IN GOOD HEALTH BEFORE ADOPTION. THEY ARE ALL SPAYED OR NEUTERED AND BROUGHT UP-TO-DATE ON SHOTS BEFORE BEING PLACED IN THEIR NEW HOMES. WHEN TIME ALLOWS, OUR DOGS ARE ALSO HOUSE TRAINED AND TAUGHT BASIC OBEDIENCE. OUR GOAL IS TO REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF DOGS AND CATS EUTHANIZED IN SHELTERS EVERY YEAR, BECAUSE OF OVERPOPULATION. WE ARE PRIMARILY A DOG RESCUE, BUT WE DO TAKE CATS EVERY NOW AND THEN WHEN WE HAVE ROOM.
Should I give to this charity?
Of every $100 spent, about $92.40 was reported for mission work. Use the spending picture below and ask what results that work produced.
Plain answer: A tax form cannot prove that a charity is doing good. It can show how the charity says it spent its money—and point out questions you should ask.

Money made simple
Ask these three easy questions
- Who did you help? Ask for a recent story or report that shows real results.
- What will my money do? Ask exactly what your gift will pay for.
- Is this really the charity? Give only through its official website or confirmed phone number.
Worth asking: Expenses exceeded revenue by $739 this year. Ask whether that was planned or caused by a one-time event.
Bottom line: Do not decide from a name, mission statement, or tax status alone. Look at where the money went, then ask what changed, who was helped, and what your gift will do. YouCanGiveBack does not endorse or grade organizations.
Financial picture
A plain-language look at the latest Form 990 figures available. These numbers help you ask better questions; they do not, by themselves, rate whether a charity is good or bad.
How each $100 of revenue was used
The large number compares each expense with revenue. The smaller number shows its share of total expenses.
Expenses were greater than revenue, so the colored ring fills the available $100 and the total above 100% is shown below.
Money in and money out
