THE SANCTUARY OFFERS TWO PRIMARY PROGRAMS TO ENSURE THESE CHERISHED COMPANIONS CONTINUE TO RECEIVE LOVE AND CARE: 1) THE SANCTUARY PETS PROGRAM PROVIDES A LIFELONG, LOVING HOME FOR SENIOR PETS WHOSE ELDERLY OWNERS ARE UNABLE TO CONTINUE THEIR CARE DUE TO LIFE TRANSITIONS SUCH AS MOVING INTO ASSISTED LIVING FACILITIES. THESE PETS RECEIVE COMPREHENSIVE CARE, INCLUDING PROPER NUTRITION, GROOMING, EXERCISE, SOCIALIZATION, PAIN MANAGEMENT, AND DIGNIFIED END-OF-LIFE CARE. THE SANCTUARY ALSO FACILITATES VISITATIONS BETWEEN THE PETS AND THEIR ORIGINAL OWNERS IN ASSISTED LIVING OR NURSING FACILITIES. 2) THE GUARDIAN ANGEL PROGRAM ALLOWS COMMUNITY MEMBERS TO PROVIDE PERMANENT FOSTER HOMES FOR SENIOR PETS WHILE SDSPS RETAINS RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE PETS' MEDICAL CARE FOR THE REMAINDER OF THEIR LIVES. AT THE OUTSET OF 2025, THE SWEET DREAMS SENIOR PET SANCTUARY (SDSPS) HAD 16 SENIOR DOGS AND 4 SENIOR CATS IN ITS CARE. OVER THE COURSE OF THE YEAR, THE SANCTUARY RECEIVED AN ADDITIONAL 7 SENIOR DOGS, RESULTING IN A TOTAL OF 23 SENIOR DOGS AND 4 SENIOR CATS ENROLLED IN OUR PROGRAM THROUGHOUT THE YEAR. WE ALSO HAD 3 DEATHS, SO WE ENDED THE YEAR WITH 20 SENIOR DOGS AND 4 SENIOR CATS. THESE ANIMALS WERE SURRENDERED PRIMARILY DUE TO CHANGES IN THEIR ELDERLY OWNERS' CIRCUMSTANCES, PARTICULARLY RELATED TO DECLINING HEALTH, TRANSITIONS TO ASSISTED LIVING FACILITIES AND NURSING HOMES, OR OTHER HOUSING SITUATIONS WHERE PET OWNERSHIP WAS NO LONGER FEASIBLE. SIX ELDERLY INDIVIDUALS WERE DIRECTLY SUPPORTED IN 2025 BY THE MISSION OF SWEET DREAMS SENIOR PET SANCTUARY DURING PERIODS OF SIGNIFICANT LIFE CHANGE, SUCH AS TRANSITIONING INTO ASSISTED LIVING OR EXPERIENCING DECLINING HEALTH. THROUGH THE STRUCTURED SURRENDER PROCESS, THESE INDIVIDUALS WERE ABLE TO PLACE THEIR SENIOR PETS INTO THE SANCTUARY'S CARE, ENSURING THAT THEIR COMPANIONS WOULD CONTINUE TO RECEIVE CONSISTENT, HIGH-QUALITY CARE IN A SAFE AND NURTURING ENVIRONMENT. THIS SERVICE NOT ONLY PROVIDED PEACE OF MIND TO THE INDIVIDUALS BUT ALSO ALIGNED WITH THE ORGANIZATION'S GOAL OF PREVENTING THE ABANDONMENT OR SHELTER PLACEMENT OF AGING PETS. IN ADDITION TO SERVING ELDERLY SENIORS WHO ARE NO LONGER ABLE TO CARE FOR THEIR SENIOR PETS, SDSPS HAS A FAR GREATER IMPACT. SDSPS REDUCES THE BURDEN ON THE FAMILIES OF THOSE SENIORS WHO ARE FACED WITH REHOMING THE PETS, THE SHELTERS THAT MIGHT OTHERWISE HAVE TO HOUSE THE PETS, AND THE AMAZING NUMBER OF HARDWORKING RESCUE VOLUNTEERS WHO MUST MAKE DIFFICULT DECISIONS DAILY BECAUSE OF AN OVERWHELMING NUMBER OF SURRENDERED ANIMALS. 0 68101 AT THE OUTSET OF 2025, FOUR SENIOR DOGS WERE PLACED IN LOVING HOMES THROUGH OUR GUARDIAN ANGEL PROGRAM. THROUGHOUT 2025, WE HAD A TOTAL OF TEN SENIOR DOGS AND ONE SENIOR CAT LIVING IN THE COMMUNITY. THIS INITIATIVE ALLOWS ANIMALS TO LIVE IN PERMANENT FOSTER PLACEMENTS, WHERE THEY RECEIVE CONSISTENT COMPANIONSHIP AND CARE TAILORED TO THEIR NEEDS. ALTHOUGH THESE ANIMALS RESIDE WITH THEIR FOREVER FOSTERS, THEY REMAIN ACTIVE PARTICIPANTS IN OUR PROGRAM, WITH SDSPS RETAINING FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR MEDICAL CARE. THIS ARRANGEMENT ENSURES THAT EACH ANIMAL CONTINUES TO RECEIVE HIGH-QUALITY, COMPASSIONATE CARE WITHOUT PLACING AN UNDUE BURDEN ON THEIR FOSTER FAMILIES. TO DATE, 14 COMPASSIONATE INDIVIDUALS HAVE EMBRACED THE ROLE OF GUARDIAN ANGELS, OPENING THEIR HOMES AND HEARTS TO SENIOR PETS IN NEED. THESE FOSTERS HAVE PROVIDED LOVING, STABLE ENVIRONMENTS FOR ANIMALS WHO MAY HAVE OTHERWISE FACED AN UNCERTAIN FUTURE. THROUGH THE GUARDIAN ANGEL (FOREVER FOSTER) PROGRAM, EACH PARTICIPANT HAS EXPERIENCED THE JOY AND EMOTIONAL FULFILLMENT THAT COMES WITH PET COMPANIONSHIP WITHOUT THE ADDED STRESS OF MANAGING VETERINARY COSTS. THIS MODEL HAS PROVEN ESPECIALLY MEANINGFUL FOR INDIVIDUALS WHO LONGED TO CARE FOR A PET BUT WERE PREVIOUSLY LIMITED BY FINANCIAL OR MEDICAL CONSTRAINTS. BY ALLEVIATING THE FINANCIAL BURDEN, SWEET DREAMS SENIOR PET SANCTUARY HAS EMPOWERED THESE FOSTERS TO FORM DEEP, LASTING BONDS WITH THEIR SENIOR COMPANIONS, ENHANCING THE LIVES OF BOTH PET AND HUMAN. MANY HAVE EXPRESSED THAT THE PRESENCE OF A SENIOR PET HAS BROUGHT RENEWED PURPOSE, DAILY ROUTINE, AND EMOTIONAL COMFORT, THUS DEMONSTRATING THE PROFOUND MUTUAL BENEFIT OF THIS PROGRAM. 0 6428 74529 CAROLE HARRISON EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR 24.00 0 0 0 CATE SITTON DIRECTOR OF OPERATIONS 28.00 0 0 0 CATHY FENNEL BOARD MEMBER 8.00 0 0 0 DR SAVANNAH CLARK BOARD MEMBER 10.00 0 0 0 STEPHANIE DRENNING PRESIDENT 8.00 0 0 0 DIANE WASSICK SECRETARY/TREASURER 14.00 0 0 0 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 THE ORGANIZATION PO BOX 1917 SEGUIN TX 78156 4129134724 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 NONE NONE 1 X 31877 72322 108295 212494 31877 72322 108295 212494 212494 1 5 88 94 212588 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED FORM 990-EZ, PART I, LINE 4 - OTHER INVESTMENT INCOME DESCRIPTION: INTEREST INCOME.
