Form 990, Part III, Line 4aSince 2021, we have invested in the medical care of animals by building the Lifesaving & Learning Center which includes a state-of--the-art surgery suite (over $500,000); outfitting it with the addition of a new digital x-ray machine (over $50,000); purchasing an Oxygen Generator, a Distilled Water Machine, a Teaching Microscope and additional surgery instruments (over $10,000). Since 2015, the Friends have helped to financially support the spay/neuter program of 14,950 animals. Spay & neuter programs are essential work to reduce the population of all shelters - not simply ours. Since 2022, we have published monthly "Tri-City Tales" which is a monthly heart-warming story of events at the shelter. This is so valuable for people to know there are so many positive outcomes from animal shelters. The city of Cedar Hill uses it frequently in their monthly newsletter which accompanies residents' water bills. We also are active on social media telling the good news of all the work the shelter does!! The Friends are involved in support of the Tri-City Animal Shelter through our involvement in their community adoption events. like Country Day on the Hill, Cedar Hill Block Party, National Night Out, Petco/Petsmart Adoption Events, Blessing of the Animals, Ovilla Heritage Days and events at the Signature Park in Cedar Hill. To improve adoption numbers, it is important to get dogs out of their kennels so people can interact with them. We have our own events like "Cats, Coffee, Dogs & Donuts" which is an informal event for people to come out and socialize with one another and have their pictures taken with cats or dogs or bunnies or the favorite - Barbie the Chicken. 2023 saw our annual "Paws-in-the-Pool" event being held at the new Cedar Hill outdoor splash park/pool. Also, in 2023 we held our first "CharCATerie & BARKdeaux" which was a wine & cheese event. We sold it out and people raved about what a great time they had plus we raised monies to support our work. Additionally, we funded multiple transport events to shelters in the northern states where there is a shortage of animals to adopt. We raise funds to support our work through our participation in North Texas Giving Days, social media campaigns, grant writing, relationship building and our newest event CharCATerie & BARKdeaux. We are a busy, active group who are passionate in our support of the Tri-City Animal Shelter staff and the more than 6,500 animals who come through the doors every year.
