What Shadow Fund Ne does
Mission
To provide financial assistance to a guardian of an animal who is unable to provide the necessary veterinarian care or medical attention for their cherished pet
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
The organization made 47 disbursements during the fiscal year on behalf of ill companion animals. The organization makes periodic referrals to low cost veterinarian facilities and vaccination providers. The organization has resumed sponsoring an annual animal law day. The program had been suspended for the previous two years due to COVID-19 restrictions. The Animal Law Day allows the organization to provide education on animal issues. When Animal Law Day has been presented, there are usually in attendance 30-40 representatives from animal charities and rescue organizations that seek homes for abandoned pets.

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 2023 to 2024, from $25k to $54k (+112%).
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 SHADOW FUND NE’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. 0 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. $407 arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state 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.
