Programs
Sanctuary: in fiscal year 2024-2025, the sanctuary program continued to provide refuge and rehabilitation to approximately 398 dogs, cats and farmed animals, most of whom were rescued from horrific conditions. The beautiful 85-acre sanctuary offers the animals a peaceful environment with fresh air, open green pastures, expert medical care, and a team of compassionate caregivers. When ready, adoption services personnel matched 244 animals with loving families in safe, permanent homes making room for more animals to come through our gates. During the fiscal year, 454 volunteers logged more than 12,000 hours in support of sanctuary operations and the organization maintained its accreditation from gfas (global federal of animal sanctuaries), demonstrating the our commitment to upholding the highest standards for the animals in our care.

Through two mobile spay stations and regularly scheduled community clinics, psh performed 3,692 high-volume spay and neuter surgeries in 8 washington counties, and distributed 17,500 pounds of pet food to families with pets in need through local food banks. By decreasing the number of dogs and cats entering shelters and preventing unnecessary euthanasia, the pet service's program plays a vital role in supporting animal welfare in the community.

We directly engaged with more than 770 community members and more than 4,000 students through humane education initiatives and participated as a leap (leaders for ethics, animals and the planet) high school partner-sanctuary for the second year.
$527,403 spent$16,062 earned by the program10% of program spendingInvestigations & rescue: in fiscal year 2024-2025, the investigations & rescue program continued its mission to secure justice for animals, working closely with legal experts, prosecutors, judges and law enforcement agencies to improve how the criminal justice system responds to crimes against animals. Our team responded to, investigated and supported 71 cases of animal cruelty and neglect in 42 jurisdictions across washington state, many of which resulted in large-scale rescues.
$225,665 spent$1,600 earned by the program4% of program spendingAdvocacy: in fiscal year 2024-2025, the advocacy program continued to provide a voice for animals by collaborating with legislators and key stakeholders to drive meaningful policy changes, strengthen laws that benefit animals, and mobilize our community to stand behind issues that aim to end animal suffering. During the fiscal year, our lobbying efforts resulted in the passing of landmark legislation in washington state which made animal fighting a ranked felony, placing it within the state sentencing guidelines; closed a loophole in the second degree animal cruelty statute that hindered prosecution of the most common forms of criminal neglect; and enacted changes that will make post-conviction animal ban provisions enforceable. Our team also successfully lobbied for and supported three additional bills that became law, and initiated grassroots advocacy action alerts to the community that resulted in 5,290 emails and letters being sent to state and federal legislators in support of proposed legislation that would strengthen legal protections for companion and farmed animals and in opposition to legislation that would weaken protections.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 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 2024 to 2025, from $20M to $25M (+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.
Government-grant reliance: 2021 6%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
85% of PASADO'S SAFE HAVEN’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (67% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 24 funders to 44 funders, grant income rose $1.0M → $3.0M.
19 of 97 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 21% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
Left out of every figure on this page: $10k from one payer (the payer's own filing calls it a related party, largest Reger Family Foundation). These are real filings, and they are not money PASADO'S SAFE HAVEN raised.
From the IRS filings of PASADO'S SAFE HAVEN’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 97 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
PASADO'S SAFE HAVEN leans on a few funders — its largest provides 36% of grant income and the top three 69%; half comes from just 2 funders.

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

How long its funders stay
45% of PASADO'S SAFE HAVEN's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 61% give in more than one year at all.
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
95% of PASADO'S SAFE HAVEN's grant income comes from Washington funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $3.9M arriving through sponsors registered in 13 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.
Against its field
PASADO'S SAFE HAVEN runs a healthier operating margin than three-quarters of the 134 animals nonprofits its size.
