01What it does

What K9 Enrichment Initiative Inc does

Mission

We are a 501c3 animal rescue organization, licensed by the il department of agriculture, which aims to complete families through the re-homing of shelter, abandoned and surrendered dogs.we believe, for every dog, there is a family and for every family, there is a dog. Each of our dogs is well prepared to join their family upon adoption and live quality lives as we carefully craft customized programs for each dog we intake. This prepares us and them to find the best match to complete a family as well as to enrich the dog's life through medical care, behavior care, and training. Our mission extends beyond just the adoption stage and into all the years at that juncture.

As stated on its FY2019 Form 990-EZ.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left

93% 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 K9 ENRICHMENT INITIATIVE INC.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $129k arriving through sponsors registered in 3 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.
