A word from our Executive Director, Latoya Petty

As the Executive Director of the St. Croix Animal Welfarw Center, I am heartbroken that it has come to us cutting a lifesaving program to keep our doors open. The reality is simple, the amount of resources needed to do this work is great and we are underfunded in EVERY way. The government grant we get only covers the first 252 animals in our custody A YEAR! Our shelter intake averages 2,000 animals A YEAR.

Many of you ask how we got into this position.

1) As you all know, over the last 11 months SCAWC has not had a FT Primary Vet. We have been taking a substantial loss with clinic income which helped subsidize lack of government funds received to be an open doors shelter.

2) On Island Adoptions are down. Our Pet Place Adoptions program is a beautiful program but the local community is not adopting at a high rate. Meaning we are not bringing in any substantial income from that program to support any other shelter needs. In fact we downsized our expenses for this program by moving the Adoptions Center into the Flea Market building which allowed us to cut the rent and WAPA bill associated with this program.

3) Grants- the USVI is in a grant desert. We apply to every grant that is available to the U.S Territories that SCAWC qualifies for. We also apply to all the local funding opportunities for animal welfare - and there aren't many. Most funders ONLY fund the 50 states and have made it very clear that they won't fund U.S Territories. Barriers pop up all the time- for example we recieved a grant for vaccines from the Petco Love Foundation. However, their supplier refused to ship to the USVI. Even with the alternative shipping options we provided- they pulled the grant opportunity.

4) Government Funding: as you all know we are grossly underfunded to do this work. All animal welfare entities are grossly underfunded in the USVI. AND they want to cut our funding even more! 😡 AFTER we have been diligently advocating for more funding every year!!! Don't get me started on that. This is the real issue why SCAWC is in financial strain. We just can't afford to address all the animal welfare problems on the island - we do our best everyday with the resources we have. With your donations and your support we DO OUR BEST. The sad part is that we shouldn't need to use the community's donations to conduct municipal animal welfare practices. We should be free to use your donation for lifesaving programs like Paws From Paradise and life saving medical supports for animals to have a live outcome.💙🩵

5) Misinformation: I wanted to address the Misinformation floating around. And I also want to be very clear ALL INDIVIDUALS WORKING AT SCAWC ARE UNDERPAID FOR THE SKILLS AND DEDICATION THEY BRING TO THE ORGANIZATION. One of my goals when I took this job was to make sure the staff is compenstated a liveable wage in association to the job they are doing. It's still my goal and we are moving in that direction- slowly and consistently.

- Board Members ARE NOT compensated.

- SCAWC is NOT in charge of Animal Control on St. Croix.(who is paying for that?)

- Dr. Jung is making a competitive salary for her skill set and still UNDERPAID compared to Vets in the mainland with her experience.

- SCAWC does not have unlimited resources and tons of donations coming in every day. We have to make hard budgeting decisions daily.

- Unfortunately Paws From Paradise is not funded by anything but community donations. It's a program that easily costs us $120k a year. So if you want to keep this program going- that's what we need- Corporate Sponsors totaling $120k a year specifically for Paw From Paradise.

I'm open for any conversation. Feel free to reach out.
