Financial Health and Sustainability

Balancing present-day impact with sustainability for tomorrow.

As Important as Programmatic Results

Every year, we strive to grow our programs to save more lives.

But with everything we do, we make sure to view it through a lens that is focused on making long-term, sustainable change.

We believe strong fiscal management is key to optimizing and leveraging resources. We do this by:

  • Recognizing the value of every dollar
  • Incorporating trained volunteers in everything we do
  • Recruiting talented professionals from a wide range of backgrounds, emphasizing private sector experience in our executive management
  • Supporting a culture of continuous improvement, always considering how we can do more with less

Charity Navigator, the nation’s largest independent charity evaluator, has recognized our efficient operations and best practice governance by giving us its highest 4-star rating consecutively since 2003. Less than 1% of nonprofits have received such consistent recognition.

Guidestar, the world’s largest source of nonprofit information, awarded PAWS Chicago its highest level of recognition - The Platinum Seal of Transparency. The Platinum Seal recognizes our continued commitment to full public accountability for our work. By sharing mission-focused metrics, we give our supporters meaningful data to independently evaluate our performance and results.
