Benchmark for Scoring

Impact scores of spay and neuter programs are based on the cost a household spends on lifesaving care for a pet. Programs receive an Impact score of 100 if they are less than 75% of the 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. This program fixes an animal for less than 75% of the cost a household spends on lifesaving care for a pet.

Methodology

This impact score was determined through the Low-Cost Spay & Neuter Clinic methodology which is fully detailed in the Charity Navigator Guide to Ratings. Analysis conducted in 2023 by Charity Navigator using data submitted by the nonprofit, theory and evidence from scientific research studies, and public datasets.
