2011 Animal Charity Grant Winner – Spay Neuter Project of Los Angeles

Congratulations to the Spay Neuter Project of Los Angeles!  You are the winner of the 2011 Animal Charity Grant.  Pet overpopulation is a terribly difficult problem throughout America.  SNP LA is Los Angeles’s largest spay neuter provider.  They offer low cost surgeries to help the Los Angeles community prevent the suffering, hardship and too often, euthanasia that result from unwanted animals.  I look forward to speaking on behalf of SNP LA!

You can learn more about their great work at www.snpla.org.  I am pleased to join the Heigl Foundation, PetSmart Charities, Found Animals Foundation and many others who support this nonprofit organization in Southern California.

As a veterinarian, speaker and author, I have found offering this grant immensely rewarding.  So, around year-end, look for details on the 2012 grant.
