Impact & Measurement
Score
100
This beacon estimates the actual impact a charity has on the lives of those it serves, and determines whether it is making good use of donor resources to achieve that impact.
$277,758 total costs / 941 rescues = roughly $300 rescues one animal [2021 USD]
Program Context
Foster Based Feline Rescue: The nonprofit rescues animals that would have otherwise been killed or left in some other bad condition. These animals are taken in and sheltered.
Data Time Period
12/16/20 to 12/31/21
Benchmark for Scoring
Impact scores of animal shelters are based on the cost a household spends saving the life of their pet. Programs receive an Impact score of 100 if they are less than 75% that cost and a score of 80 if they are less than 125%. If a nonprofit reports impact but doesn't meet the benchmark for cost-effectiveness, it earns a score of 65. The nonprofit shelters an animal for less than 75% the cost a household spends saving the life of their pet.
Methodology
This impact score was determined through the Animal Shelter methodology which is fully detailed in the Charity Navigator Guide to Ratings. Analysis conducted in 2024 by Charity Navigator using data submitted by the nonprofit, theory and evidence from scientific research studies, and public datasets.
