01What it does

What Espanola Valley Humane Society does

Mission

We seek to improve the lives of companion animals and to solve the problem of pet overpopulation in the espanola valley by providing humane shelter for cats and dogs, facilitating adoption, offering spay-neuter, humane education, and other progressive animal welfare programs.

As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.

Programs

  1. Clinic. Espaola humane operates a spay/neuter clinic that offers free surgeries and vaccinations to the pets of area residents, which results in over 7,000 spay/neuter surgeries and over 14,600 vaccinations every year. The goal is to reduce the number of unwanted animals and create a healthier community for pets, their families, and their neighbors.

  2. Shelter. Espaola humane also manages a municipal shelter that receives over 4,300 animals each year. The shelter welcomes every animal, including the very elderly, ill, aggressive, or injured.

The organization over time

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 17 funders to 33 funders, grant income rose $253k → $1.3M.

15 of 80 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 56% 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 ESPANOLA VALLEY HUMANE SOCIETY’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 80 funders by total. 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

ESPANOLA VALLEY HUMANE SOCIETY has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 26% of grant income, and it takes 3 funders to reach half.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 3 funders to its left

63% 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 ESPANOLA VALLEY HUMANE SOCIETY.

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.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $4.4M arriving through sponsors registered in 12 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.
