DUE TO OUR EXPERT VETERINARY AND BEHAVIOR TEAMS, PAWS CHICAGO IS ONE OF THE FEW SHELTERS IN THE COUNTRY THAT CAN TREAT AND REHABILITATE A LARGE VOLUME OF SICK, INJURED AND BEHAVIORIALLY CHALLENGED ANIMALS. IN 2021, 8,646 SEPARATE MEDICAL DIAGNOSES WERE TREATED, INCLUDING 1,098 RESPIRATORY ILLNESSES; 969 GI CONDITIONS LIKE PARASITES AND WORMS; 443 MUSCULOSKELETAL ABNORMALTIES; 154 ABNORMAL HEART CONDITIONS; 78 HEARTWORM-POSITIVE CANINES AND 29 NEUROLOGIC CONDITIONS. IN ADDITION TO PERFORMING 12,272 SPAY/NEUTER PROCEDURES, VETERINARY SURGEONS PERFORMED 304 ADVANCED SURGERIES ADDRESSING... ORTHOPEDIC, DENTAL, HERNIA REPAIR, MASS REMOVAL AND OTHER MEDICAL NEEDS. THE MEDICAL CENTER - THE FIRST STOP FOR HOMELESS ANIMALS WHEN THEY ARRIVE AT PAWS - AND ITS WORLD-CLASS VETERINARY TEAM TREAT THE MOST SERIOUS CASES ON SITE. A ROBUST FOSTER NETWORK CARES FOR PETS WHEN THEY ARE STABLE AND READY TO RECOVER IN A HOME ENVIRONMENT. 2,641 ANIMALS WENT INTO FOSTER CARE IN 2021. AS THE ANIMAL WELFARE MOVEMENT CONTINUES TO GROW IN CHICAGO,HEALTHY ANIMALS ARE BEING SAVED IN RECORD NUMBERS AT THE CITY IMPOUNDMENT FACILITY, MEANING THE POPULATION OF RESCUED ANIMALS INCREASINGLY REQUIRE MORE SIGNIFICANT MEDICAL RESOURCES. PAWS RECENTLY CONDUCTED A MAJOR EXPANSION OF ITS MEDICAL CENTER AND SHELTER MEDICINE PROGRAM TO INCREASE ITS CAPACITY TO SAVE SICK ANIMALS. 2907840 1240021 PREVENTION & SPAY/NEUTER: DESPITE THE CONTINUED EFFECTS OF THE PANDEMIC SLOWING DOWN BUSINESSES ACROSS THE COUNTRY AND FORCING MASSIVE CHANGES TO OPERATIONS PAWS CHICAGO REMAINED THE ONLY LOCAL PROVIDER OF HIGH VOLUME SPAY/NEUTER SURGERIES, PERFORMING 12,272 IN 2021. THE MAJORITY OF STRAY, FERAL AND UNWANTED PETS ORIGINATE IN UNDER RESOURCED COMMUNITIES. THROUGH THE PAWS CHICAGO LURIE CLINIC IN LITTLE VILLAGE, LOCATED LESS THAN TWO MILES FROM CHICAGO'S ANIMAL CARE & CONTROL, PAWS OFFERS SPAY/NEUTER SERVICES WHERE THEY ARE NEEDED MOST AND WHERE THEY MAKE THE MOST IMPACT. PAWS CHICAGO IS NEARING THE MILESTONE OF 300,000 LOW-COST AND FREE SPAY/NEUTER SURGERIES SINCE THE LURIE CLINIC'S OPENING IN 2000 WHICH HAS LITERALLY CHANGED THE LANDSCAPE OF PET HOMELESSNESS. PREVENTING UNWANTED PETS FROM BEING BORN IS KEY TO... BUILDING A NO KILL CHICAGO. A SINGLE FEMALE CAT AND HER OFFSPRING CAN THEORETICALLY PRODUCE 420,000 KITTENS IN SEVEN YEARS. FOR DOGS, THE NUMBER IS 96,000. SPAY/NEUTER SURGERIES ARE THE SOLUTION TO PET OVERPOPULATION, AND AS SUCH, ARE AT THE CORE OF THE PAWS PREVENTION INITIATIVES. AS AN ANCILLARY SERVICE TO THE LURIE CLINIC, PAWS CHICAGO LAUNCHED THE PAWS FOR LIFE DOOR-TO-DOOR OUTREACH PROGRAM IN 2014, AND OPENED THE ENGLEWOOD OUTREACH CENTER IN 2019. PROGRAM STAFF AND VOLUNTEERS EXPAND ACCESS TO SPAY/NEUTER AND PET RESOURCES IN CHICAGO'S MOST UNDERSERVED COMMUNITIES. OF THE PETS PAWS FOR LIFE MEETS, 95% ARE UNALTERED. SIMPLY BY REMOVING BARRIERS, PAWS ACHIEVES A SPAY/NEUTER CONVERSION OF 83%. PAWS CHICAGO'S FERAL CAT TRAP-NEUTER-RETURN (TNR) PROGRAM IS ANOTHER CRITICAL ASPECT OF THE PREVENTION PILLAR. BY PROACTIVELY STERILIZING AND MANAGING THE FREE-ROAMING CAT POPULATION, THE SOURCE OF THOUSANDS OF UNWANTED KITTENS BORN EACH YEAR, TNR REDUCES THE NUMBER OF ANIMALS ENTERING THE SHELTER SYSTEM WHILE ALSO SAVING KITTENS AND FINDING THEM ADOPTIVE HOMES. IN 2021, PAWS PERFORMED 1,602 SPAY/NEUTER SURGERIES ON FERAL CATS. THESE PREVENTION EFFORTS ARE CRITICAL TO ENDING THE KILLING OF HOMELESS PETS. THERE HAS BEEN A 91.06% REDUCTION IN KILLING OF HOMELESS PETS IN CHICAGO SINCE 1997 AND TWO-THIRDS OF THIS REDUCTION IS THE RESULT OF FEWER PETS ENTERING SHELTERS. 1974970 848725 ADOPTION: RESCUING HOMELESS PETS AND UNITING THEM WITH THEIR NEW FAMILIES CONNECTS THE PUBLIC WITH THE PLIGHT OF HOMELESS PETS ON THE DEEPEST LEVEL. THROUGH PAWS CHICAGO'S ADOPTION CENTERS AND INNOVATIVE PROGRAMMING, PAWS UNITED 4,046 ANIMALS WITH LOVING HOMES IN 2021. ON JUNE 28, 2021 AFTER MORE THAN A YEAR OF CONDUCTING VIRTUAL ADOPTIONS, PAWS CHICAGO WAS ABLE TO REOPEN FOR IN PERSON ADOPTIONS. USING OUR PROPRIETARY COMPATIBILITY QUIZ, PAWS USES TECHNOLOGY TO MATCH PETS WITH PROSPECTIVE ADOPTERS BASED ON THEIR LIFESTYLE NEEDS, ENSURING A LASTING COMMITMENT. OUR TRAINERS OFFER ON-SITE SUPPORT AND ADVICE, CONDUCTING RESIDENT PET INTRODUCTIONS AND ENSURING A SMOOTH TRANSITION INTO THE HOME. OUR VOLUNTEERS OFFER DETAILED ADOPTION COUNSELING AND FOLLOW-UP. 1794329 12955 COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT & VOLUNTEERS: COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT IS THE FOUNDATION FOR CREATING LASTING CHANGE FOR ANIMALS AND IS THE BASIS UPON WHICH ALL OF PAWS CHICAGO'S PROGRAMS ARE BUILT. PEOPLE CAUSE THE PET OVERPOPULATION PROBLEM AND PEOPLE HAVE THE POWER TO SOLVE IT; ANIMALS ARE THE VOICELESS VICTIMS. THE WAY TO INSPIRE AND CREATE REAL CHANGE FOR ANIMALS IS TO MOBILIZE PEOPLE TO BE THEIR CARETAKERS AND ADVOCATES, AND PROVIDE NEEDED SUPPORT IN UNDER-RESOURCED COMMUNITIES. WHEN PAWS CHICAGO WAS FOUNDED IN 1997, THE MASS KILLING OF HOMELESS PETS WAS A HIDDEN CRISIS. THE PUBLIC HAD NO IDEA THAT MORE THAN 42,000 HOMELESS CATS AND DOGS WOULD BE EUTHANIZED IN THE CITY OF CHICAGO THAT YEAR. PAWS CHICAGO WAS FOUNDED TO BRING ATTENTION TO THE PLIGHT OF THESE VULNERABLE ANIMALS AND TO MOBILIZE PUBLIC SUPPORT TO DEVELOP HUMANE SOLUTIONS AND BUILD NO KILL COMMUNITIES. SHINING A LIGHT ON PET OVERPOPULATION AND HOMELESSNESSAND THE RESULTANT KILLINGHAS MOBILIZED TENS OF THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE TO GET INVOLVED IN THE CAUSE BY ADOPTING, FOSTERING, VOLUNTEERING, ADVOCATING FOR AND DONATING TO HOMELESS PETS. WITH ITS NO KILL MODEL IN ACTION, PAWS CHICAGO IS LEADING A MOVEMENT THAT RIPPLES THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY. EVERY YEAR, PAWS CHICAGO WELCOMES SHELTERS, RESCUE GROUPS AND INDIVIDUALS NATIONWIDE TO SHADOW ITS OPERATIONS. PAWS CHICAGO ALSO HELPS START-UP ADOPTION/RESCUE GROUPS AND SPAY/NEUTER CLINICS AROUND THE WORLD. IN CHICAGO, PAWS HELPS CHICAGO-AREA RESCUE GROUPS AND SHELTERS BY PROVIDING LOW-COST MEDICAL SERVICES AT THE LURIE SPAY/NEUTER CLINIC AND BY INCREASING EXPOSURE OF THEIR HOMELESS ANIMALS THROUGH ANGELS WITH TAILS ADOPTION EVENTS. BY RAISING AWARENESS ABOUT PET HOMELESSNESS AND ENGAGING PEOPLE IN LIFESAVING EFFORTS, PAWS CHICAGO MAKES LASTING CHANGE FOR ANIMALS. VOLUNTEERS: VOLUNTEERS ARE THE LIFE FORCE BEHIND PAWS CHICAGO'S OPERATIONS AND AN ESSENTIAL INGREDIENT TO BUILDING A NO KILL CHICAGO. IN 2021,VOLUNTEERS DEDICATED 96,035 HOURS OF SERVICE, THE EQUIVALENT OF 46 FULL-TIME EMPLOYEES. AND THIS DOESN'T INCLUDE FOSTER FAMILIES WHO TOOK IN AND CARED FOR 2,641 ANIMALS IN NEED IN 2021. IN ADDITION TO THE TIME VOLUNTEERS COMMIT TO PAWS CHICAGO, THEY ARE ALSO AMBASSADORS REACHING NEW PEOPLE AND ENGAGING NEW COMMUNITIES IN THE CAUSE OF HOMELESS ANIMALS THROUGH THEIR EVERYDAY INTERACTIONS. ANIMAL WELFARE IS INCREDIBLY LABOR-INTENSIVE WORK, AND VOLUNTEERS WORK ALONGSIDE OUR STAFF TO AMPLIFY OUR LIFESAVING. FROM SHEPHERDING THE ADOPTION PROCESS, TO ATTENDING TO THE NEEDS OF SICK PETS AT OUR MEDICAL CENTER, TO MANNING OUR OFFSITE ADOPTION AND COMMUNITY EVENTS, OUR VOLUNTEERS SUPPORT THE WORK OF EVERY DEPARTMENT. ONLY THROUGH VOLUNTEERS IS PAWS CHICAGO ABLE TO EXECUTE ALL ELEMENTS OF THE COMPREHENSIVE NO KILL MODEL AND ADVANCE ON THE MISSION OF BUILDING NO KILL COMMUNITIES. 1794329 12955 12200642 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 21 0 1 246 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 23 23 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 IL X X X ANTHONY BERNARD 7734753323 1933 N MARCEY ST CHICAGO IL 60614 PAULA FASSEAS CHAIRMAN 30.00 X X 0 0 0 PAM CAREY PRESIDENT 1.00 X X 0 0 0 ALEXIS FASSEAS TREASURER 30.00 X X 0 0 0 GEORGE KARCAZES SECRETARY 30.00 X X 0 0 0 JANICE BECK BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 BARBARA BRADFORD BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 MELISSA CANNING BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 MICHAEL CANNING BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 BRUCE CROWN BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 LISA DENT BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 GLENN FELNER BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 RAJ FERNANDO BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 JEFF HALL BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 STEPHANIE FIELD HARRIS BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 SUZANNE LE MIGNOT BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 TINSLEY MORTIMER BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 MURRAY PERETZ BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 MAYARI PRITZKER BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 PHIL RASKIN BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 NANCY SANTI BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 KURT SEIDENSTICKER BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 ROBERT SHERMAN BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 KRISTINE WEXLER BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 CHARLES DAY ADVISORY BOARD 0.30 X 0 0 0 MARK DUGGAN ADVISORY BOARD 0.30 X 0 0 0 DR BARBARA ROYAL ADVISORY BOARD 0.30 X 0 0 0 MARIA SMITHBURG ADVISORY BOARD 0.30 X 0 0 0 SUSANNA HOMAN CEO/CHIEF COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT OFFICER 40.00 X 125000 0 1498 EMILY SWINIARSKI CHIEF MEDICAL OFFICER 40.00 X 135346 0 0 JAMES ENGEL VICE PRESIDENT, COMMUNICATIONS AND MARKETING 40.00 X 138558 0 4578 KATRINA LAW VICE PRESIDENT, COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT 40.00 X 120731 0 0 JOAN HARRIS DIRECTOR, CANINE BEHAVIOR & TRAINING 40.00 X 113015 0 4578 TODD LESSER VP OF SPECIAL PROJECTS 40.00 X 122992 0 0 755642 0 10654 11 0 0 0 RWE DESIGN BUILD 1303 OGDEN AVE DOWNERS GROVER IL 60515 CONSTRUCTION 548216 SOUTHWEST PUBLISHING & MAILING 4000 SE ADAMS ST TOPEKA KS 66609 DIRECT MAIL PRODUCTION 397930 CROSSREALMS INTERNATIONAL INC 20 W KINZIE ST FLOOR 17 CHICAGO IL 60654 INFORMATION SERVICES 157552 L AND E MERIDIAN 8000 CORPORATE COURT SPRINGFIELD VA 22153 PRINT SHOP 133936 OAK BROOK MECHANICAL SERVICES INC 961 S ROUTE 83 ELMHURST IL 60126 HVAC REPAIR/MAINTENANCE 117744 10 2662004 1153803 15141586 913948 18957393 LURIE CLINIC INCOME 541990 1240021 1240021 ADOPTION FEES 812900 848725 848725 TRAINING CENTER 812900 184243 184243 2272989 3531858 3531858 31860333 30657880 1202453 1202453 1202453 1024642 2662004 1453676 -429034 -429034 19645 5139 14506 14506 38025 17455 20570 20570 OTHER MISCELLANEOUS INCOME 900099 12955 12955 12955 25583690 2285944 0 4340353 124108 92618 25192 6298 6592644 6297556 250101 44987 330172 323019 7153 541990 523080 15543 3367 40205 40205 39688 39688 6083 5846 237 400355 240076 135694 24585 431562 340707 49970 40885 390050 379365 10685 50301 49077 1008 216 1578 1500 78 683098 658163 21430 3505 181997 167348 13021 1628 OUTSIDE SERVICES 1108533 893676 31815 183042 MEDICAL SUPPLIES 859322 859322 ANIMAL CARE SUPPLIES 636855 636855 PRINTING AND PRODUCTION 472479 313328 159151 519007 419106 14980 84921 13410027 12200642 656485 552900 4109915 7333275 3626033 0 2625629 1850910 42925 39954 187703 193245 26587571 6749034 19734436 19838537 61479197 81536133 91805838 110792054 971312 1075754 37148 179958 1153803 1116955 2162263 2372667 X 73683588 78410374 15959987 30009013 89643575 108419387 91805838 110792054 12173663 6602149 0 X X 0 1 X 1 0 X 12759996 15158087 15990281 13912387 16173589 73994340 12759996 15158087 15990281 13912387 16173589 73994340 8705755 65288585 1194814 1637804 1712253 2152381 3531858 10229110 70223 38230 5554 12955 126962 84350412 10215251 0.77400 0.79270 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 50449464 19741475 70190939 41810232 8639232 50449464 38076519 3733713 41810232 33021011 5055508 38076519 25296830 7724181 33021011 0.62000 0.38000 0 0 3874619 3874619 17632252 3577938 14054314 183725 67366 116359 2111340 1822603 288737 2785635 1281127 1504508 19838537 X 33662109 6602149 1476270 8078419 25583690 0 25583690 14886297 1476270 1476270 13410027 0 13410027 PART X, LINE 2: ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES GENERALLY ACCEPTED IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA REQUIRE THE ORGANIZATION TO EVALUATE TAX POSITIONS TAKEN BY THE ORGANIZATION AND RECOGNIZE A TAX LIABILITY IF THE ORGANIZATION HAS TAKEN AN UNCERTAIN POSITION THAT MORE LIKELY THAN NOT WOULD NOT BE SUSTAINED UPON EXAMINATION BY TAX AUTHORITIES.
