Programs and results

What we aim to solve

SOURCE: Self-reported by organization

We are working to save thousands of homeless animals every year by providing a network of foster homes where these pets can receive the love and care they need to thrive and thus, be attractive to potential adopters.

Our programs

What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?

New York City Area Rescue and Adoption

Louie's Legacy acts locally in the NYC area helping local pets and families, as well as pets outside the area which are not often found locally and do not compete with local pets.

Animals are pulled primarily from municipal or county shelters, quarantined, assessed medically and behaviorally, altered, provided with basic and other necessary vetting and placed in foster homes. Fostered animals are then made available for adoption to the public and are placed in appropriate, screened and contracted permanent homes.

Charting impact

Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.

What is the organization aiming to accomplish?

Louie's Legacy Animal Rescue, Inc. aims to alleviate the suffering of abandoned shelter animals by rescuing, rehabilitating and rehoming them within our community.

What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?

We are proudly foster-based, meaning our animals live in homes, not shelters. This differentiates us and allows us to more thoroughly get to know our animals, ensuring they are matched with suitable, screened adoptive homes which meet our high standards.

As part of our commitment to the health and well-being of all of our animals and to reduce pet overpopulation in our community, every pet is spayed or neutered prior to adoption.

We work in two metro areas (New York City and Cincinnati, OH ) and offer WEEKLY adoption events in partnership with our local Petsmart and Petco stores. Our dedicated staff and volunteers work tirelessly to recruit fosters, promote adoption and evaluate applicants to ensure the very best for the animals in our care.

What are the organization's capabilities for doing this?

Louie's Legacy has a network of several hundred foster homes, a full time leadership staff and a hundreds of volunteers who help in every aspect of care from pet transportation, medical, office management, marketing, development and grant management, fundraising and weekly adoption events.

What have they accomplished so far and what's next?

Louie's Legacy has saved over 10,000 pets since we began our work in 2009. We experienced tremendous growth in the past over year, saving over 2,000 pets in 2017 alone. Next, Louie's Legacy strives develop a comprehensive strategic plan as the foundation for continued growth and sustainability into the future.

Balance sheet

Fiscal Year: Jan 01 - Dec 31

SOURCE: IRS Form 990

The balance sheet gives a snapshot of the financial health of an organization at a particular point in time. An organization's total assets should generally exceed its total liabilities, or it cannot survive long, but the types of assets and liabilities must also be considered. For instance, an organization's current assets (cash, receivables, securities, etc.) should be sufficient to cover its current liabilities (payables, deferred revenue, current year loan, and note payments). Otherwise, the organization may face solvency problems. On the other hand, an organization whose cash and equivalents greatly exceed its current liabilities might not be putting its money to best use.
