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.

—Mary E. Wilkins Freeman (1852–1930)
“The care of a house, the conduct of a home, the management of children, the instruction and government of servants, are as deserving of scientific treatment and scientific professors and lectureships as are the care of farms, the management of manure and crops, and the raising and care of stock.”
