This program has helped a lot of animals in our area!

Since we reopened the applications a week ago, we have received over 80 applications and we could use some help from the community to refill our coffers so that we can process the applications. We knew we had limited funds but wanted to open to as many people as possible, but the response has really astounded us. If you can possibly donate anything, we would greatly appreciate it. Obviously, there is a need for help and we want as many animals spayed and neutered as possible because, as you know, it is our firm belief that spay/neuter is the only answer to our overpopulation problem. Thank you for any help you can give. Can donate here or nasana.org
