[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]There is a lot of money in animal rescue.[/b] You can look up the financial records of a lot of non-profits that are in the NOVA area and see how much money....

[b]It is a business don't forget.[/b] [/quote]

Are you saying the people who run rescues are making a nice living from it? (I just need to know how divorced from reality you are)[/quote]

Just gonna leave this right here: https://www.lostdogrescue.org/about/finance/[/quote]

This shows that the amount they "made" on adoptions was about the same as the amount they spent on direct animal care (a little more in '22, less in '21) not counting other expenses like insurance.

That is, they did not make a profit on adoption fees.

Is there something in the financial statement that you find objectionable? Just the fact they have assets (from donations) they are not using to make dogs free to adopt?[/quote]

They pay their head $88K.  I run a non-profit and don't get paid.  [/quote]

If you go back a few years, their head didn't get paid, either. But not all nonprofits are the same, and not every head deserves to be paid the same.

Should every high school kid who founds a nonprofit as resume-padding get paid? Should the head of Planned parenthood.

I think it's great that you're running a nonprofit. If it were big and successful, I think you should get paid.[/quote]
