UPDATE! THE DATE HAS BEEN CHANGED TO OCTOBER 17TH!!
📢📢IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT AND CALL TO ACTION!!📢📢
Gonzales Dog Adoptions (GDA) has been contracted by the City of Gonzales to operate the municipal dog shelter for over a decade (since 2011). Until January, our monthly budget was $2,300 ($27,600 annually). Since February, our budget has increased to $4,000 per month.
We currently operate under a year-to-year contract, which requires annual renewal and have done so in good faith for over a decade. Having reached our goal of $100,000 to construct a new building on city-owned property, we seek approval for a 10-year contract. This will ensure GDA's continued operation as a No-Kill shelter, serving the City of Gonzales.
The new building won't increase our dog capacity but will provide better shelter for our current intake during harsh weather conditions. We urge the community, our donors and supporters to attend the city council meeting on October 17th at 6:00pm to support our mission to continue providing vital services for our community .
