What Destiny for Dogs Inc does
Mission
We are an animal rescue that fosters and finds forever homes for unwanted and abandoned animals and we provide assistance for fixed income senior citizens to help care for their pets with food supplies and annual veterinary care.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990-EZ.
Programs
We are in the animal rescue business which requires each animal to be vetted and made healthy prior to them being adopted. Many animals are in need of major medical attention and once ready for adoption will be fully vetted with vaccines and rabies.
$33,000 spent66% of program spendingAll of our animals are placed in foster homes or a boarding facility where they are taken care of until they are adopted. We provide grooming services to assist with skin and hair issues. Transporting is provided to take animals to and from vet appointments and also to perform meet and greets for potential adopters.
$5,433 spent11% of program spendingWe purchase food and supplies to take care of all animal intakes when they are placed into foster homes and then provide the foster homes with food and supplies that are required to take care of each animal.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2021, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2021, 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 2022 to 2023, from $124k to $94k (−24%).
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.
100% of DESTINY FOR DOGS INC’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (100% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 3 of the last 5 reported years ran a deficit.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $20k 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.
