    Impact Statement
    $100,966 total costs / 54 rescues = roughly $1,900 rescues one animal [2021 USD]
    Program Context
    Golden Retriever Rescue: The nonprofit rescues animals that would have otherwise been killed or left in some other bad condition. These animals are taken in and sheltered.
    Data Time Period
    1/1/22 to 12/31/22
    Benchmark for Scoring
    Impact scores of animal shelters are based on the cost a household spends saving the life of their pet. Programs receive an Impact score of 100 if they are less than 75% that cost and a score of 80 if they are less than 125%. If a nonprofit reports impact but doesn't meet the benchmark for cost-effectiveness, it earns a score of 65. The nonprofit shelters an animal for more than 125% the cost a household spends saving the life of their pet.
    Methodology
    This impact score was determined through the Animal Shelter methodology which is fully detailed in the Charity Navigator Guide to Ratings. Analysis conducted in 2024 by Charity Navigator using data submitted by the nonprofit, theory and evidence from scientific research studies, and public datasets.
    Data Source
    The nonprofit submitted cost data, the number of intakes, as well as how many animals received a "non-rescue" exit
