01What it does

What Clark County Humane Society does

Mission

Clark County Humane Society (cchs) is dedicated to promoting a more humane world through: operating a no-kill shelter, adopting out homeless cats & dogs, low cost spay/neuter services, humane education, reducing pet overpopulation, assisting area residents with pet problems, and alleviating animal suffering whenever possible.

As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.

Programs

  1. Adoption program: one of the primary goals of cchs is to operate a no-kill humane society. Staff and volunteers work very hard to place dogs and cats in need with loving families in new forever homes. In 2024, cchs placed 632 animals, included 449 dogs and 183 cats.

  2. Fixapet program: cchs has established a low-cost high-quality spay/neuter program for cats, dogs, and rabbits. The program is open to everyone, regardless of location or financial need, with a goal of helping to reduce the pet overpopulation problem. In 2024, 3426 surgeries were performed, including 832 cat spays, 813 cat neuters, 809 dog spays, 830 dog neuters, 65 rabbit spays, and 77 rabbit neuters. Since fixapet began in 2007, 32759 surgeries have been performed.

  3. Cat and dog surrenders: animals surrendered to cchs by owners unable to keep their pets. Perhaps the family is moving, allergies have developed in the family, or there is a change in family dynamics, for example a divorce or a new baby. Regardless of the reason, cchs tries to best help individuals with their pet problems. If the problem cannot be resolved, cchs accepts the animals in need and will work to find a new home for the pet. Microchipping: cchs provides microchipping services to the public at a reduced cost. We feel this truly helps people to care for their pets and certainly enables lost pets to return home safely and in a timely fashion. All pets adopted from cchs, both dogs and cats, are microchipped prior to adoption. All stray pets are also microchipped prior to being returned to their families. Stray holding facility: cchs acts as the holding facility for stray dogs and cats. These pets are held for the appropriate legal holding time to enable their owners the opportunity to find them and reclaim them. During 2024, 27 animals were returned to their owners. All unclaimed strays became available for adoption to new families.

Each line starts at 100 in 2020, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2020, 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.

03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 4 funders to 5 funders, grant income fell $107k → $4k.

4 of 13 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 53% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

From the IRS filings of CLARK COUNTY HUMANE SOCIETY’s funders (the co-funder graph). Association, not causation. 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.

How concentrated its funding is

CLARK COUNTY HUMANE SOCIETY leans on a few funders — its largest provides 41% of grant income and the top three 89%; half comes from just 2 funders.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left

96% 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 CLARK COUNTY HUMANE SOCIETY.

“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration.

29% of CLARK COUNTY HUMANE SOCIETY's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 38% give in more than one year at all.

first grant+1y+2y+3y+4y+5y+6y

Share of funders still giving k years after their first recorded grant, pooled across every acquisition cohort. A funder counts as retained in a year only if it made a grant that year. Measured to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving — a funder cannot be counted as lapsed in a year most filers have not reached.

Where its funders are

53% of CLARK COUNTY HUMANE SOCIETY's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Of the $115k that is directly attributable, 93% of it comes from funders outside Wisconsin, across 6 states.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $129k arriving through sponsors registered in 4 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.
