01What it does

What Healing Hearts Rescue does

Mission

Healing Hearts Rescue is a volunteer-based non-profit dog rescue located in the Twin Cities area of Minnesota. We are dedicated to changing the lives of animals through healing and finding them safe homes. We are 100% funded through adoption fees and donations. We believe every dog deserves to be loved as true members of a family and are committed to fulfilling that dream one dog at a time.

As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.

Program

  1. Healing Hearts Rescue provides loving, temporary foster homes for homeless animals in need while actively seeking forever homes. We offer extensive veterinary care, including often costly dental procedures imperative for an animal?s overall health and wellbeing, and physical rehabilitation for some of the most challenging medical cases, helping ensure each animal is as healthy as possible before adoption. Additionally, we educate fosters and adopters in dog handling, behavior, and body language, and provide ongoing training support to foster emotional healing so dogs can thrive in their forever homes.

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

2019 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 7 funders, grant income rose $6k → $20k.

4 of 12 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 37% 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 Healing Hearts Rescue’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

Healing Hearts Rescue leans on a few funders — its largest provides 47% of grant income and the top three 76%; half comes from just 2 funders.

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

84% 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 Healing Hearts Rescue.

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

first grant+1y

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.

Minnesota out of state home

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $37k 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. 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.
