What United Coalition for Animals does
Mission
Our mission is ending the euthanasia of cats and dogs in local shelters and keeping pets in their loving homes by providing professional and affordable spay/neuter and wellness services.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
Ucans mission is ending the euthanasia of cats and dogs in local shelters and keeping pets in their loving homes by providing professional and affordable spay/neuter and wellness services. In 2025, we performed 12,355 spay/neuter surgeries. These surgeries prevented hundreds of thousands of unwanted puppies and kittens from being into abuse, neglect and ultimately facing euthanasia in overcrowded shelters. The surgeries, which prevent or substantially reduce certain types of illnesses and cancers, will also help these pets live longer, healthier lives.
$1,503,318 spent94% of program spendingIn our wellness business, clients receive low-cost vaccines and other preventative care at our friday vaccine clinics so they can keep their beloved pets with them instead of being forced to surrender them to a shelter due to preventable illnesses. In 2025, 3,606 animals received basic veterinary services at our friday vaccine clinics.

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 2022 to 2023, from $2.9M to $3.4M (+16%).
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: 2019 5% · 2020 9%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
56% of UNITED COALITION FOR ANIMALS’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (74% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 1 of the last 9 reported years ran a deficit.

From the IRS filings of UNITED COALITION FOR ANIMALS’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 18 of 20 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
UNITED COALITION FOR ANIMALS leans on a few funders — its largest provides 69% of grant income and the top three 91%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 54% · 2020 69% · 2021 69% · 2022 98% · 2023 82% — growing more concentrated.
“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.
How long its funders stay
43% of UNITED COALITION FOR ANIMALS's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 60% 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
94% of UNITED COALITION FOR ANIMALS's grant income comes from Ohio funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $185k arriving through sponsors registered in 5 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.
