Happy Five Year Anniversary to PALS!

June 13, 2008 : 11:50 PM
Purrs and tail wags from the cats and dogs of Central Texas.

By Sharri Boyett, Executive Director of Pet Prevent a Litter of Central Texas

Happy Anniversary! The five year anniversary of the reorganization of Pet Prevent A Litter (PALS) of Central Texas falls on June 13, 2008, and our successes have been great. Established as a 501(c)(3) non-profit in 1990 and reorganized in 2003, PALS has issued over 2,000 spay/neuters vouchers for local pets.

Thanks to you, the PALS organization has grown significantly:
• In 2003 PALS issued 109 vouchers
• In 2004 PALS issued 248 vouchers
• In 2005 PALS issued 416 vouchers
• In 2006 PALS issued 584 vouchers
• In 2007 PALS issued 1,053 vouchers
• As of mid-April 2008 PALS has issued 497 vouchers

Together we really do make a difference!

I look forward to the next five years as we embark upon the planning for the PET FEST 5K Race & Pledge Walk.

Date: Saturday, September 27th
Time: 8:00 AM – 12:00 Noon
Where: San Marcos Plaza Park
San Marcos, Texas

All for the animals,
~Sharri

HOW YOU CAN HELP:
• Your financial support can help PALS to continue to provide sterilization surgeries for those individuals who could not otherwise afford to fix their pets. Please consider donating.
Volunteers are needed to help with fundraising, special events (like Pet Fest), public relations, writing thank you notes and more. Even one or two hours a week could significantly help the organization.
