Financial Management
Charity Watch gave SPCA an "F" grade for money mismanagement.
In 2012, a CNN investigation found that SPCA had raised almost $27 million but spent nearly all of that money on fundraising expenses paid to a direct mail company. Of the $14 million that SPCA raised in 2010, the organization spent only $60,000 in cash grants to animal shelters across the United States. CNN also accused SPCA of misrepresenting a program called "Baghdad Pups" on its tax filings and hiring an officer for that program with a questionable background.
