Mission
who would otherwise face neglect or death. Through spay/neuter programs, pet retention services, and community education, CAPS addresses the root causes of animal homelessness while protecting public health and strengthening the human-animal bond across Churchill County.

Programs
Churchill Animal Protection Society (CAPS) rescues homeless and at-risk dogs and cats in rural Churchill County, providing veterinary triage, vaccinations, spay/neuter, microchipping, and safe housing until placement. As one of the only animal welfare organizations in the region, CAPS addresses critical gaps caused by limited resources and geographic isolation. In 2025, CAPS admitted 71 animals (43 dogs, 28 cats) and delivered medical care, behavioral support, and daily enrichment. CAPS also partnered with the City of Fallon Animal Control to strengthen coordinated response to community animal welfare needs.
$124,077 spent$257,225 earned by the program100% of program spendingCAPS places animals into permanent homes through adoption programs and community engagement initiatives, including shelter visits, spend a day/weekend with a dog experiences, and off-site interactions that promote bonding between animals and potential adopters. In 2025, CAPS facilitated 95 adoptions (58 dogs, 37 cats), significantly reducing shelter overcrowding and easing pressure on municipal resources. CAPS also operates a foster program for animals requiring medical recovery or behavioral rehabilitation, improving adoption readiness and long-term success. Each successful placement reduces euthanasia risk and strengthens families across Fallon and Churchill County.
To reduce shelter intake at its source, CAPS provides preventative services and community education, including: Low- and no-cost spay/neuter vouchers (SNAP program) Microchipping and identification clinics Pet care education and outreach events In 2025, CAPS also launched a Pet Pantry Program, distributing 2,346 pounds of pet food (1,869 dog / 477 cat), enabling families to retain their pets during financial hardship and preventing unnecessary surrender. Together, these programs address the root causes of pet homelessness and promote responsible pet ownership across the community.
CAPS relies heavily on volunteer support to sustain operations. In 2025, volunteers contributed over 415 service hours, including more than 125 military personnel from Naval Air Station Fallon. Volunteers support daily animal care, transportation, facility maintenance, and socialization, significantly expanding organizational capacity. CAPS also partners with local high schools to provide youth volunteer opportunities, fostering long-term community engagement in animal welfare.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2023 to 2024, from $104k to $240k (+131%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
37% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund Churchill Animal Protection Society.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2019 100% · 2020 90% · 2021 93% · 2022 63% · 2023 100% — broadly stable.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $10k arriving through sponsors registered in 2 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
