We operate a low-cost, high quality Spay/Neuter Clinic serving companion animals throughout the Napa Valley. In 2011, a record 4,831 spay or neuter surgeries were performed by our team with our one surgery suite operating 251 days. Additionally, Napa Humane is an important link in keeping a healthy population of pets and people by holding a weekly affordable vaccination/microchipping clinic. In our 3.5 hour weekly vaccination clinic in 2011 we vaccinated 2,567 pets and microchipped 1,771 companion animals. 53576 432 Humane Education: Our outreach efforts engage hearts, hands, and minds for animals. We are in classrooms each week of the school year with programs such as Responsible Pet Care and Safe with Cats and Dogs. We have also created a live puppet performance, The Right Pet for Princess Penny, presented in assembly format of 200-400 children per show, and provide a curriculum-based activity book to each child to reinforce the humane lessons presented. We sponsor annual subscriptions to KIND News (Kids in Natures Defense) to over 100 classrooms reaching 3,000 students, and we offer the community classes Introducing Your Pet to your New Baby, Kitten 101, Bunny Basics, and Pet First Aid. 48445 Shelter Support Services: We are at the heart of helping homeless animals in our community. We use our Mobile Adoption Unit to take animals from the Napa County Animal Shelter out into the community, and we help to re-home Shelter pets by leading a cadre of volunteer photographers to take appealing pictures of the animals that show their personalities outside of their caged environment, posting the photos on websites such as Petfinder.com to create the most exposure possible for a pet in need of a home. We formed the Community Cat Cooperative, working with the Shelter and other community partners to address the needs of "loosely owned" cats in the Valley. 5180 672327 true true false false false false false false false false true true false false true false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true true false false false false false false false false false true 16 0 true 18 true false false false false false false false false false false false 0 false false false true false false false false false false false X 10 10 false false false false false false false true true false false false true true true false true true true true false false CA X X Jane Albert 7072558118 3265 California Blvd Napa CA 94558 PATRICIA WALKER 2.00 X X 0 0 0 MARY WHITEHILL 1.00 X 0 0 0 DIANE SHIMSHAK 1.00 X X 0 0 0 TOM FULLER 1.00 X 0 0 0 DARREN PETERIE 1.00 X 0 0 0 CLAY GREGORY 1.00 X X 0 0 0 DARCY TUNT 2.00 X X 0 0 0 BROOKE DUNTON 1.00 X 0 0 0 JENNIFER BYRAM 1.00 X 0 0 0 JERI HANSEN-GILL 1.00 X 0 0 0 JANE ALBERT 55.00 X 81623 0 9795 81623 9795 0 false false false 0 90413 142356 164635 232769 HUMANE EDUCATION 432 432 CLINIC SERVICES 384491 384491 384923 23945 23945 0 0 0 7614 -7614 -7614 -7614 125321 90413 125321 0 0 131078 82203 48875 48875 0 682898 384923 65206 0 0 0 0 91418 41138 22855 27425 0 381096 343456 2200 35440 8578 8076 502 22846 20666 2180 43260 35711 2242 5307 0 622 622 30274 7472 19066 3736 0 1305 1305 1935 1935 35380 28227 2376 4777 1600 817 4 779 6571 5289 302 980 0 0 9417 6009 1704 1704 1655 1185 116 354 0 1812 1460 352 0 0 20333 17879 2454 17494 13877 2072 1545 Telephone 5527 4845 264 418 Supplies 107208 106376 88 744 Repairs & Maintenance 8873 7793 552 528 Printing and Publications 11680 8571 82 3027 Bank charges 10277 8931 42 1304 5791 4549 593 649 824952 672327 59569 93056 122557 7217 310229 487899 0 10303 8902 0 0 0 42292 25129 8495 775 441716 167482 239179 274234 253049 311553 456806 468080 0 2659 205 13 0 1445582 1583994 61568 36467 256408 61568 292875 X 1206926 1114031 177088 177088 1384014 1291119 1445582 1583994 X -142054 49159 X false false false false false X 363903 112794 172188 211749 204176 1064810 0 0 363903 112794 172188 211749 204176 1064810 0 1064810 48989 44006 22918 25670 23945 165528 0 0 1230338 1758172 0.86550 0.85740 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 102895 102895 181892 67487 114405 156929 99995 56934 274234 468080 Fiduciary Fund Liability 256408 256408 X X X X X true CA CAUSE FOR PAWS 215734 90413 125321 22850 21538 7858 3700 69375 215734 90413 125321 22850 21538 7858 3700 69375 125321 Jennifer Byram Director 114370 Legal Fees Paid true One of our board members, Jennifer Byram, is a partner in the law firm of Coombs & Dunlap LLP. The Humane Society of Napa County and SPCA, Inc, in conjunction with three other charities, contracted with Coombs & Dunlap LLP to provide legal services. The law firm represented the charities in asserting the charities' rights to bequests from the Dolores R. Fry Revocable Trust. The Dolores R. Fry Revocable Trust named four charities as the remainder beneficiaries. The charities became aware that the trustee had misappropriated the trust funds, so the bequest to which they were entitled had been taken. After reviewing the facts, Napa Humane decided to pursue claims against the trustee on behalf of itself and the other three charities. The total potential damages were estimated to be approximately $2,000,000. Another beneficiary also filed suit against the trustee, so litigation was risky. Napa Humane contracted with Coombs & Dunlap, LLP, to pursue the litigation on a contingent fee basis. Because the recovery was speculative, and involved both breaches of fiduciary duty, complicated estate tax questions, and another plaintiff competing for the same damages, the contract was for a 50% contingency. The litigation was eventually resolved by settlement confirmed by the court in November, 2010. To date, the settlement has provided over $460,000, after attorney fees, to the four charities, distributed partially in 2010 and partially in 2011. There is one more outstanding issue that may provide an additional $125,000. The attorney fees were paid from the settlement monies before distribution to the charities, so each charity paid 25% of the total attorney fees. To date, attorneys and staff at Coombs & Dunlap have dedicated over 1,285 hours to this litigation, which at regular hourly billing rates would exceed $440,000 in fees.

The third party sells the vehicles and charges a fee of 30% of the net proceeds plus a nominal administration fee. Part VI, Section B, line 12c - Monitoring of Conflict of Interests Since 2008, the organization has had the following procedures to monitor and enforce potential conflicts of interest: Officers and board members are required to annually document in writing any interests, relationships or holdings that could potentially result in a conflict of interest. If a conflict of interest is identified from an annual disclosure, the organization's executive committee reviews the conflict and takes appropriate action, which may include prohibiting an individual from participating in the board's deliberations and decisions regarding a certain transaction. If a conflict is identified during a meeting, the entire Board will decide what appropriate action to take.Due to an unintentional oversight, the annual monitoring portion of this procedure was not performed in 2011. A procedure has been put into place to assure that this omission will not happen again. Form 990, Part VI, Line 19 Form 990, Part VI, Line 19: Other Organization Documents Publicly Available The organization makes its governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements available to the public upon request. Form 990, Part VI, Line 15b Form 990, Part VI, Line 15b: Compensation Review and Approval Process for Officers and Key Employees No other officers are compensated and the organization has no key employees. Form 990, Part VI, Line 11 Form 990, Part VI, Line 11: Form 990 Review Process The Board of Directors conducts a review of the organization's Form 990 (including all related Schedules) that has been prepared by an outside public accounting firm. Once the Board has completed its initial review of the Form 990, any questions, comments, and suggested revisions identified by the Board are discussed with the preparer. The preparer of the Form 990 makes any revisions to the Form 990 and it is again reviewed by the Board. The Board is then asked to grant approval for filing the Form 990. After such approval is obtained, each board member is provided with a final copy. The form is then filed with the internal revenue service. Form 990, Part III, Line 4d Form 990, Part III, Line 4d : Other Program Services Description OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 4: Companion Connection: Each year we field hundreds of calls from pet owners with questions about their pets, from hopeful soon-to-be adopters with concerns about how to welcome a new pet into their family to pet owners experiencing a troubling behavior that might cause them to surrender, abandon, or turn out their companion animal. We help with our non-emergency behavior help-line to counsel and educate with the goal of creating and supporting humane homes for pets. Our goals are clear: helping people know the right time for a pet, know the right pet for their family, that a pet is ones pet for all of its life, and that every pet deserves a safe, respectful, and enriching environment.
