When veterans lose hope, it's easy to give up everything. It's easy to let darkness define life instead of living life to its fullest. Our dogs deliver hope to people who need it most.* We currently ensure the wellbeing of over 1,300 dogs, including puppies and dogs training on our campus, dogs growing in puppy raiser homes, and active guide, service, and skilled companion dogs transforming lives throughout the country. During the past year, we placed more than 130 dogs into important, impactful careers.* We provide a personal, caring touch through follow-up services to more than 700 graduates throughout the United States. Our students-people with vision loss and veterans with post-traumatic stress disorder-report a 99.7% overall satisfaction rating in their exit surveys.* Dogs Inc operates the most comprehensive alumni support of any service dog organization in North America. Thanks to partnerships with Fromm Family Pet Food, Elanco and private donors and veterinarians, our organization ensures that every graduate can receive-completely free of charge-premium dog food, monthly preventatives, vaccinations, and financial support for their veterinary needs. 16326740 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 13 1 1 230 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 X 12 12 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 FL AL AR CA CT GA IL KS MD MA MI MN MS NH NJ NM NY NC OR PA RI SC TN UT VA WV WI KY X X X Gloria Manzenberger Chief Financial Officer 9417295665 4210 77th Street East Palmetto FL 34221 X Drew Asher Member 2.00 X 0 0 0 Susan Citron Member 2.00 X 0 0 0 Kenneth Folkman Member 2.00 X 0 0 0 Tim Griffy Member 2.00 X 0 0 0 Vice Admiral Joe McGuire USN Member 2.00 X 0 0 0 Bobby Newman Member 2.00 X 0 0 0 Dr Harris Silverman Member 2.00 X 0 0 0 John Whitcomb Member 2.00 X 0 0 0 Robert Meade Chair 20.00 X X 0 0 0 Colleen Flaherty Treasurer 10.00 X X 0 0 0 Carol Sanders Vice Chair 10.00 X X 0 0 0 Kathy Saunders Secretary 10.00 X X 0 0 0 Titus Herman Chief Executive Officer 55.00 X 445837 0 38251 Gloria Manzenberger Chief Financial Officer 55.00 X 148074 0 25622 Larissa Daigle Chief Philanthropy Officer 50.00 X 184469 0 8433 Joel Clark Chief Infrastructure Offic 55.00 X 146523 0 15533 Stacy Howe Chief Marketing Officer 50.00 X 176067 0 28034 Lisa O'Kane Chief Operations Officer 50.00 X 132288 0 14967 Devon Antoinette Smith Sr. Director of Medicine 50.00 X 154987 0 14170 Becca Cassidy Veterinarian 50.00 X 119611 0 11557 1507856 0 156567 8 0 1 0 WTVT-New World Communications of Tampa PO Box 100535 Atlanta GA 303840353 Advertising 297056 WFLA 33096 Collection Center Dr Chicago IL 60693 Advertising 241417 WFTS PO Box 947913 Atlanta GA 303947913 Advertising 231014 Patterson Veterinary Supply 28905 Network Place Chicago IL 606731232 Veterinary Supplies 225819 Andrick & Associates 5403 Ashton Ct Sarasota FL 34233 Printing and Mailing 194033 16 40698 827421 223870 22166039 542404 23258028 3085488 3085488 16951134 845862 16622042 800000 329092 45862 374954 374954 6855 827421 412682 -405827 -405827 52693 44593 8100 8100 Program revenue 900099 217816 217816 Public adoption revenue 900099 122300 122300 Marketing revenue 900099 27143 14613 12530 367259 26688002 354729 12530 3062715 1472774 705110 504940 262724 8996935 7427138 181265 1388532 169937 144884 25053 809057 670951 12228 125878 725094 566978 44016 114100 17564 17564 44700 44700 211193 211193 500650 404536 25659 70455 1991070 1990588 482 453807 364039 31419 58349 56557 56557 286844 237823 28005 21016 373262 273356 2745 97161 110989 110989 1349730 1079784 269946 333945 257463 23957 52525 Breeding/Vet/Kennel Exp 1019070 1019070 Maintenance and Equipme 731702 675586 19941 36175 Supplies 240962 148310 14606 78046 Dues & Fees 96622 51574 38533 6515 546457 252993 107146 186318 20538921 16326740 1689334 2522847 600 6560 9246966 6602191 895379 652728 83072 78659 33687 45631 148815 119428 41168148 12115957 28961828 29052191 58124876 68559897 2075538 1365359 99570761 106482644 1644221 1810312 1510776 1510776 11269 11114 3166266 3332202 X 76622521 84148802 19781974 19001640 96404495 103150442 99570761 106482644 X 6149081 591630 5236 X X 0 1 X 1 0 X 22422646 17331642 22821149 28311881 23258028 114145346 22422646 17331642 22821149 28311881 23258028 114145346 5430600 108714746 867254 959716 1583252 2278312 3085488 8774022 43588 29815 9864 83267 126872 128667 248775 212909 367259 1084482 124087117 257316 0.87610 0.89460 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 4479503 4479503 30983693 7674050 23309643 683901 639508 44393 4572634 3802399 770235 448417 448417 29052191 Gift Annuity Liability 11114 11114 X 53857079 591630 26318975 469665 27380270 26476809 211193 211193 26688002 46646703 26318975 26318975 20327728 211193 211193 20538921 Part X, Line 2: Under the Income Taxes Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, the School and Trust have reviewed and evaluated the relevant technical merits of each of its tax positions in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for accounting for uncertainty in income taxes and determined that there are no uncertain tax positions that would have a material impact on the combined financial statements.
