Mission
Improving the lives of animals and people by providing resources, care, and protection.
Program accomplishments
- Shelter Operations - the League serves as an animal shelter for Arlington County, VA and accepts any animal regardless of condition from within Arlington County. We also accept other animals from outside of Arlington County when we have the space to do so. The League has a contract with the City of Falls Church to provide the same services. Some of the animals we help are lost pets that are reunited with their owners; some are given up by owners who could no longer care for them; some are found abandoned and others were transferred to us by other rescue partners. We also take in wildlife that may be injured, orphaned or trapped and in many cases are rehabilitated and returned to the wild. The League adopts dogs, cats and small companion animals. In FY25, the League's positive outcome rate for companion animals is 95%.Expenses $1,983,152 · revenue $1,614,746
