Donors make a difference

Thanks to you, we were able to increase access to care in San Francisco, the Central Valley, and across California. Your generosity strengthens our community, ensuring that pets and people can thrive side by side.

With your support, we provided more than $5.2M in free and reduced-cost veterinary care to the San Francisco community.

Our work expands across California:

  • We provided direct services for 97,829 total animals.
  • We spayed and neutered 21,334 dogs and cats. 93% of those procedures were subsidized.
