Desc1) Programs to Save Lives and Place Homeless Animals:- Adoption - facilitates adoptions by matching prospective pet owners with the right pet for their family, supplies information on pet care to ensure a safe and successful adoption placement, and provides follow up support to adopters for the life of their pet. Several years ago, the Organization opened a neighborhood adoption center at a PETCO store in the Paseo de Saratoga Shopping Center and during the year ended June 30, 2011, the Organization opened a second neighborhood adoption center in a PETCO store in a Sunnyvale shopping center, to adopt out more cats, dogs, and rabbits. (SEE SCHEDULE O FOR CONTINUATION) PROGRAMS TO SAVE LIVES AND PLACE HOMELESS ANIMALS (CONTINUED)In September, 2014 a third neighborhood adoption center was opened at PetSmart in Mountain View. The neighborhood locations help the Organization maintain a vital presence with the residents of west San Jose, Saratoga, Campbell, Los Gatos, Sunnyvale and Mountain View. Nearly 4,700 animals were placed through adoptions at the shelter or at the neighborhood PETCO and PetSmart adoption centers during the year ended June 30, 2016. - Golden Pet Program - offers discounted adoption fees to adopters that are age 60 and up, and are adopting a senior pet.- Adoption Scholarship Program - waives the adoption fee for animals that have been at the shelter for an extended length of stay, in order to encourage adoptions of these animals.- Military Program - offers adoption fees discounted at 50% for military veterans.- Rescue and Foster Care - works to reduce euthanasia by identifying animals at the shelter and within our community that need more assistance than their current environment can provide. The goal is to match each animal with the organization where he or she will be the most comfortable and have the greatest chance of adoption. The Rescue and Foster Care Department does this by running four programs: 1) The Foster Care Program is designed to assist animals that are underage or in need of minor behavior modification, socialization, or medical care. 2) The Kitten Nursery provides onsite care and socialization to underage kittens. During the off season it is also used to house cats that need extra socialization and small animals that need a quiet refuge. 3) The Rescue Partnership Program consists of a screened network of animal rescue organizations, veterinarians, and private shelters that are utilized to find alternative placements for animals that need further assistance or expertise. 4) The Regional Rescue Program is designed to transfer animals from the overcrowded shelters in our community to Humane Society Silicon Valley. In the year ended June 30, 2016, approximately 3,630 animals were placed into foster care and/or the kitten nursery, 525 animals were placed through the Organization's rescue partners and cat colony volunteers, and approximately 1,920 animals were brought into Humane Society Silicon Valley from its Regional Rescue Program. Working together, the Organization hopes to secure appropriate homes for all adoptable animals in Silicon Valley regardless of species, breed, age, or condition.Desc

Form 990, Part III, Line 1Strategic Direction Humane Society Silicon Valley's strategic direction is continued commitment to community collaboration to increase the number of lives saved. Companion animals in the local community come first. The aims are to: - Achieve a save rate of 95% or greater. This includes continuing to save 100% of all healthy animals that come under the Organization's care. It also includes attaining the goal to save 100% of animals that can be healed through rehabilitation and medical or behavioral treatment. - Lead the community coalition in continuing to save 100% of healthy animals in Silicon Valley. The acceptance of the Maddie's Fund Lifesaving Award signifies the coalition's ongoing commitment to achieve this result annually and forever. The Organization also wants to inspire the coalition to reach for the same goal of saving 100% of animals that can be healed through rehabilitation and medical or behavioral treatment. - Become the first model shelter in the country to complete the Association of Shelter guidelines, and create and deploy the story around the life-saving impact of this initiative. Charity Navigator and GuideStar are key organizations that provide, on their websites, information on nonprofit organizations. The following information pertains to ratings and comparability to other nonprofits. The Organization's fundraising expenses, as a percentage of total functional expenses, and its fundraising efficiency (cost to raise $1) are higher than some other animal welfare organizations due to the additional costs necessary to fund the Comprehensive Campaign. The Organization's goal is to become a national model for saving the lives of companion animals that are capable of healing. The Comprehensive Campaign is needed to sustain and increase the Organization's mission impact through progressive and scalable programs. To achieve that goal, an investment in the Comprehensive Campaign is required. In addition, during the campaign, administrative positions spend more time fundraising and, therefore, a greater percentage of those salaries are allocated towards fundraising rather than administrative (management and general) expense. If those salaries were allocated towards administrative expense, the Organization's fundraising efficiency rating in Charity Navigator would increase positively. At the same time, the Organization's administrative expense would still maintain its excellent rating due to a very low percentage of total functional expenses spent on management even when those allocated salaries are reabsorbed into the administrative category. The above factors negatively affect the financial portion of Humane Society Silicon Valley's rating on Charity Navigator, a key nonprofit charity rating organization. However, the Organization's strengths are its program efficiency ratio and its accountability and transparency ratings. The Organization's program expenses are 76% of total expenses, which is considered excellent by Charity Navigator's ratings methodology. In addition, the Organization scored maximum points on the accountability and transparency factors of the rating.
Form 990, Part III, Line 1The organization is a California nonprofit public benefit corporation that has operated continuously since 1929. The focus of the Organization is companion animal rescue and homelessness prevention. The Organization serves as a safety net for companion animals in Silicon Valley, sets a national example for innovation and seeks to transform human lives through deeper connections to animals. The impact achieved reflects the quality of the Organization and its people. Impact The Organization is driving significant, positive change for both companion animals and the people who care for and about them. The solutions are achieving groundbreaking results. Specifically, the Organization: - Saves 100% of all healthy animals in the Organization's care and has done so since 2006. In the year ended June 30, 2016, the Organization saved 90% of all animals that came through its doors, including many needing rehabilitation or extended treatment. This compares to the national average of 70% (for 2012, as reported on http:/www.maddiesfund.org/). Even more importantly, these results are being achieved while the overall community save rate continues to improve. - Provides rehabilitation and medical or behavioral treatment for nearly 3,600 (in calendar 2015) animals each year. These animals are just like pets many people already have in their homes today but they don't yet have the loving guardians they need to overcome common challenges. Given time, space, and tailored medical and behavioral attention, these animals can lead high-quality lives for years to come and provide profound enrichment to their future two-legged families. Currently, approximately 76% of the animals saved require this kind of care and treatment. - Finds and helps keep - loving homes for nearly 5,600 animals each year. This includes providing counseling and no cost pet food to keep over 215 pet animals in their homes (excluding managed colony cats), returning nearly 185 lost animals to their homes, transferring almost 525 animals, including wild life, to rescue groups and managed cat colonies, and facilitating adoptions for nearly 4,700 animals. Currently, nearly 72% of these adopted animals will receive foster care or kitten nursery care prior to being matched with their new families. - The Organization also provides "showcase" foster days for several animal rescue partners. By providing the use of the Organization's facilities to the same rescue groups at the same time each week, these groups are able to maintain a presence where potential adopters can routinely find them. This enables hundreds more animals to ultimately find homes each year. - Performs and influences nearly 8,520 spay/neuter surgeries each year. Potentially, these surgeries result in over 12,700 fewer animals being born each year. Over 1,340 of these annual surgeries are a result of the Organization's efforts to secure funds for the broader community. PetSmart Charities awarded Humane Society Silicon Valley a total of $309,000 to deploy and administer, utilizing two other local agencies, a pilot program to address Chihuahua overpopulation. These funds covered over four years of operations for approximately 5,160 Chihuahua and Chihuahua mix surgeries. A private donor awarded the Organization a total of $250,000 to expand this work to include free surgeries to all breeds in the targeted zip codes. The new funds supported 765 surgeries in the year ended June 30, 2016 and will support surgeries for a year and a half. - Provides education for 8,875 children, from pre kindergarten through 12th grade. These education programs enable social and emotional learning through interactions with animals. This includes economically disadvantaged children and at risk youth many with little prior exposure to animals. The Organization also works with local schools to provide carefully designed programs tailored to their students' unique needs, especially those who need support in building empathy, responsible decision making and relationship skills. These outcomes demonstrate that Humane Society Silicon Valley is delivering on and advancing its mission to groundbreaking levels. Innovation Humane Society Silicon Valley is setting a national example for leadership and innovation at the local level. The Organization has shattered the notion of what is possible for the guardianship of homeless animals and has established new standards for what can be accomplished. Specifically, the Organization: - Created and leads an inter agency coalition to save the lives of companion animals in Silicon Valley. The Organization founded this coalition to provide a platform for public animal care agencies to work together as a community to save lives. Visionary leadership is igniting these organizations to collaborate in achieving goals previously thought unattainable. In 2004, the community wide save rate was 30%; in the calendar year 2015 it was approximately 88%. - Developed, in conjunction with PETCO and PetSmart, a new operating model that demonstrates the power of non profit/for profit partnership. Humane Society Silicon Valley is the only organization in the nation with multiple adoption centers that are permanently co located inside PETCO and PetSmart stores. Humane Society Silicon Valley provides consistent, on going staffing and comfortable living environments while animals await adoption. PETCO and PetSmart provide use of their retail space and supply the food and supplies necessary to care for these animals. These centers make adoptions more accessible because the Organization becomes part of local neighborhoods and maintains hours convenient for potential adopters. Just over 2,125 of the Organization's adoptions happen through these PETCO and PetSmart neighborhood adoption centers. In addition, these PETCO and PetSmart stores no longer sell rabbits to their customers. They are able to rely on the Organization to provide rescue rabbits that they would otherwise purchase through pet wholesalers and breeding mills. - Crafted and spearheaded a first of its kind free spay/neuter program, operating across multiple local agencies, that targets reversing the runaway trend of Chihuahua overpopulation. This program has already reduced the number of incoming Chihuahuas in the county. It has also inspired another community outside the Bay Area to begin efforts to launch a similar version of this program. - Designed its regional rescue program in the spirit of community and collaboration. The Organization serves as a safety net for animals that most need help in the community and saves animals that would otherwise not have rescue options. The Organization also rescues animals that have been made available for adoption at their partnering agencies but are not thriving or are being overlooked by potential adopters. In addition, the Organization collaborates with local rescue organizations to save lives when they become overburdened from situations such as hoarding cases or taking in large numbers of animals from research facilities. - Built the state of the art, environmentally friendly Animal Community Center, which is one of the first gold LEED certified animal facilities in the country. This facility sets new standards for the care of homeless animals and the way that people learn about, engage with, and celebrate animals. This facility brings together and leverages the power of individuals and groups to make a difference in the lives of both companion animals and people. - Committed to focusing on combining compassion and commitment to Humane Society Silicon Valley's mission (heart) with professionalism and competence (head). The Organization seeks to attract and retain subject matter experts in animal care and experienced leaders from the for profit and nonprofit worlds who are drawn to the Organization's approach and philosophy. - Implemented transparency and accountability in operations and financials. The Organization's audit report, 990 and annual report are all posted on the Organization's website. - Launched Mutual Rescue , which is a national initiative created by Humane Society Silicon Valley to change the conversation around animal welfare from "people OR animals" to "people AND animals." (See LIne 2 for details) - The Organization's leadership and expertise are revolutionizing companion animal care in Silicon Valley and setting an example for what is possible across the nation. Humane Society Silicon Valley is demonstrating on a local level that inspiration and determination can drive community collaboration that saves and enhances lives.
Form 990, Part III, line 2The organization Launched Mutual Rescue, which is a national initiative created by Humane Society Silicon Valley to change the conversation around animal welfare from "people OR animals" to "people AND animals." People all across the country have stories to tell about how shelter animals have changed their lives for the better and Mutual Rescue is bringing these stories to the world stage. Our first film, "Eric & Peety," was instantly a viral Internet sensation and has been viewed more than 50 million times across the globe. We believe that helping animals helps people. And yet, of the $373 billion in charitable donations made in the U.S. in 2015, less than 1% went to animal-related causes. We want to raise awareness that when you donate to a local animal shelter, you are helping to transform the lives of people in your community for the better through life-changing, human-animal relationships. A recent survey revealed that 71% of Americans believe their local humane society is a branch of The Humane Society of the United States. This is not the case, and one of the goals of Mutual Rescue is to help people understand the importance of giving directly to their local shelters to create the biggest impact in their local communities. Mutual Rescue emphasizes bringing local communities together to support both animals and humans. This ultimately means connecting millions of animals with millions of people to create the positive transformation of communities all across the country.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4a- Behavior - performs behavior assessments on all shelter guests to assist with matching individual animals (their needs and behaviors) with new human families. Behavior assessments are also used to determine when behavior modification programs are required so individuals will thrive in the Organization's care and improve their manners in preparation for adoption. The Organization's Behavior Department also trains and supports all of its dog, cat and rabbit volunteer socializers. Training includes offering several classes for volunteers to learn how to work with and train the Organization's shelter guests.

Approximately 5,700 microchips were administered to adopted public client animals, and over 15,700 vaccinations and tests were administered to public client animals, including homeless cats. The Medical Center Clinic participates in the County and donor funded TNR (Trap Neuter Return) program, which offers free surgeries, microchips and vaccines for homeless cats, and offers free or minimal cost pitbull spay and neuter surgeries for County residents. The Medical Center also participates in a targeted Chihuahua project, which offers free surgeries and rabies vaccines to residents in certain zip codes. - Homeless Cats - provides community awareness about the plight of 125,000 homeless cats in Santa Clara County. The Organization partnered with community volunteer groups and other shelters to address this issue. The Organization provides low cost trap neuter and release (TNR) services for Santa Clara County residents through the Medical Center Clinic. This program is funded by donor grants, the County of Santa Clara and the City of Sunnyvale. Nearly 2,000 homeless cats were spayed or neutered as part of this program and in partnership with Peninsula Fix Our Ferals. The feral cats were also given free microchips, parasite treatments and vaccines. The Organization has produced a DVD called "Cats Without a Home" which has aired numerous times on local television to raise awareness of the homeless cat issue in the community. The Organization also holds training classes to educate community members on how to participate in the TNR program to help homeless cats. - Free Chihuahua Spay and Neuter Surgeries - In an effort to decrease the numbers of unwanted chihuahua and chihuahua mix dogs in the Organization's shelters, members of the public that live in five targeted zip codes in Santa Clara County can receive free spay and neuter surgeries, free rabies vaccines, and discounted other services. These services are subsidized by PetSmart Charities. This program is funding an incremental 5,160 chihuahua and chihuahua mix surgeries over four years, at two agencies in the community. - Free Surgeries for All Breeds in Targeted Zip Codes - A private donor awarded the Organization a total of $250,000 to expand this work to include free surgeries to all breeds in the targeted zip codes. The new funds supported 765 surgeries in the year ended June 30, 2016 and will support free surgeries for a year and a half. - Prevent Unwanted Pregnancies "PUP" - In an effort to decrease the numbers of unwanted dogs and cats in our community, members of the public can surrender healthy litters of puppies and kittens up to 4 months of age with no surrender fee. The Organization will spay or neuter the mother and father at no charge for the owners. All of the surrendered puppies and kittens receive needed veterinary care and are spayed or neutered prior to adoption. Additionally, if the surrendering owner states that they have already found homes for some of the litter, Humane Society Silicon Valley will spay or neuter those individuals at no charge as well, prior to them going into their new homes. As part of this program, the Organization spayed or neutered over 100 dogs, cats, puppies and kittens during the year ended June 30, 2016. - Animal Care - furnishes food, exercise, training, care and support for animals awaiting adoption. - Shelter Services - provides an open door shelter for incoming animals 24 hours per day, 365 days per year including stray animals brought in under contract with the City of Sunnyvale.

During the year ended June 30, 2016, the Organization's Behavior and Training Team responded to nearly 75 inquiries via this service. On average, nearly 25 minutes of individualized counseling is provided by the Organization's Ask the Behavior and Training Team service. HSSV is now also starting to track pre-adoption support (i.e. support that we are giving to the foster homes). So 9 of these inquiries were concerns that were escalated to the Behavior Team, by the Foster Department. The Behavior Team is doing more, to try and provide pre adoption support while the animal is in-care. They have been working more with foster families and even providing training (both one on one, and in group classes) while the dog is in are in foster. - Pet Pantry - offers dog and cat food and other supplies at no charge to community members who cannot afford to feed their pets or homeless cat colonies. Frequently, these animals are given up simply because the guardian has lost his/her job and can no longer provide the food that the animal needs. The Organization is committed to keeping animals in their homes. Through this program, the Organization has distributed approximately 31,250 pounds of dry dog or cat food and 9,800 cans of wet dog or cat food to a total of 91 households, 35 homeless cat colonies, and 3 rescue groups during the year ended June 30, 2016. - Lost and Found - furnishes proactive services for people who have either lost a beloved pet or found an animal including maintaining a lost/found database, lost pet recovery counseling and a "car tagging" service for owners to help increase visibility of their lost pet.
