<div>This is our most impactful spay &amp; neuter event yet! During the first week of July, a veterinary team from Pennsylvania will be flying in to Isabela, Puerto Rico to <strong>spay over 300 animals in a matter of days!</strong> Not only that, but Dr. Becky Morrow is a highly esteemed professor who is<strong> inviting 15 Puerto Rican vets come get certified in High Volume High Quality Spay &amp; Neuter</strong> for free! All we ask in exchange is that they implement high volume protocol into their clinics! This means <strong>these clinics could go from doing 5-10 spays per day to doing 50-100 per day!</strong> With available spay appointments being hard to come by in many areas of Puerto Rico, this will enable more animals to be spayed by making more appointments available to the public, and helps the clinics financially at the same time (a win win for participating!) This event will create a significant long-term impact on the island all while spaying more animals in a few days than we’ve been able to do in a year!!

<div>This fundraising goal may seem like a lot at face value, however, <strong>the cost per animal at our current estimates is around only $30!!!! </strong>This includes spay, vaccines, microchip, dewormer, flea treatment, antibiotics, pain medication, and more services according to individual animals needs! These services would normally costs $150-$400 per animal! The price for this event not only <b>SAVES </b><strong>us around $50,000 in spaying this number of animals by traditional means</strong>, but it is also creating a significant wave of change at a dozen local clinics on all ends of the island moving forward!

</div>






<div>This goal amount will go towards:






</div>






<div>* Flights for the veterinarian staff from Pennsylvania 






</div>






<div>* Surgery equipment &amp; shipping costs for borrowed equipment






</div>






<div>* Vaccines, needles, microchips, rabies tags, tattoo ink, oxygen, medication, anesthesia etc. for over 300 animals 




</div>






<div>* Supplies for the event






</div>

</div>






<div>PS: Not a single person involved is getting paid for their participation. The 60+ people involved are taking time off work to come volunteer their sweat and tears for this! If we are somehow able to raise donations that exceed the cost of this event, those dollars will be used to spay more animals at traditional clinics through the Spay Our Satos program.
