FAQs

How far do my dollars go with ROLDA?

Last year, 81% of our total operating expenses were used for programs that benefit vulnerable animals, strays and pets from communities in need; just 19% was used to cover our overhead costs (11% invested to generate more $, 8% governance and support). Please check out our annual report.

Why can ROLDA be trusted?

During our first 20 years, we gained experience helping animals in need and with a presence on 3 continents, we’ve earned the trust of an important number of donors worldwide, as well as leaders pioneering initiatives to improve animal welfare in the communities where we work. We place a high value on integrity and transparency, which is why we are pleased to be regularly reviewed and held accountable by independent third-party organizations like GuideStar.

How do you decide where my donation is needed the most?

Near the end of each year, money donated to “where most needed” (unrestricted funds) goes to underfunded programs in areas where vulnerable animals and pets are most vulnerable.
