Mission and Program Overview

Mission

We recognize that dog and cat overpopulation is a major burden on our communities resulting in many unwanted animals. The most effective way to prevent this is sterilization; therefore, our goal is to spay and neuter as many animals as possible. We are a fundraising and networking organization, dedicated to raising funds for animal rescue work, including but not limited to the spay and neuter of dogs and cats. We promote camaraderie and networking amoung animal rescue groups and individuals involved in improving animal welfare. Our plan is to work to bring in more funding so that we can be a bigger part of the solution the the problem of animal homelessness and continue to reduce the shelter intake and euthanasia rates in our local communities. The funds we raise are used to assist with expenses for sterilization, vaccines, and extreme medical procedures needed to save or improve the quality of life for companion animals.

The funds we raise are used to assist with expenses for sterilization, vaccines, and extreme medical procedures needed to save or improve the quality of life for companion animals.

Form 990, Page 2, Part III, Line 4A

Spay/neuter program - to provide as many no cost, or low cost, spay/neuter vouchers to pet owners and rescue groups to help cover the costs associated with spay, neuter, and vaccines for companion animals, and work with several local veterinarians that give us reduced pricing to help stretch our donated dollars. This keeps pets in homes and helps to get rescued animals ready for adoption. Tnr - trap, neuter, return - is part of our spay neuter program and provides vouchers for the spay or neuter, rabies vaccines and ear-tipping of feral or outdoor living cats that are then returned to their outdoor homes, healthy and unable to reproduce. In 2025 we provided assistance to 556 cats spayed, 525 cats neutered, 633 tnr male cats, 803 tnr female cats, 173 dogs spayed, 93 dogs neutered, and 2786 animals that had rabies.
