Operation Kindness, founded in 1976 in Carrollton, Texas, is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization and the oldest and largest no-kill animal shelter in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area. Its income is derived from donations.
On average, 150-200 animals are cared for daily in the shelter. Sixty to 80 more animals are placed in foster homes, meaning over 2,500 pets are adopted annually.
[edit] Founding
According to its website, Operation Kindness was established in 1976 to give care to "unwanted cats and dogs in a compassionate, no-kill environment until they are adopted..." and to promote "humane values through education and awareness."
