We accomplish this in Houston, Pasadena and San Antonio, Texas, by means of sterilization, education, and wellness services. false false 3170423 3263537 Stationary Clinics: The Houston Spay-Neuter and Animal Wellness Clinic is a reduced-cost stationary surgery/wellness clinic open to the general public with income qualifications. In FY2014, this clinic sterilized 12,205 dogs and cats and cared for 11,760 wellness patients. In addition, it continued Animal Aid, which offers free sterilizations, free wellness exams, and wellness products at cost to the dogs and cats living with people affected by HIV/AIDS. In FY2014, it helped sixty-six clients and ninety-nine animals in this program. The Pasadena Spay-Neuter and Animal Wellness Clinic had its first full year of services in FY2014. It is also a reduced-cost clinic that spayed and neutered 7,690 cats and dogs as well as seeing 3,177 wellness patients. It is open to the general public without qualifications. It also works with area shelters at a special discount, and through a voucher program serves low-income people for free (365 surgeries in FY2014). Moreover, when it is usually closed, the Houston mobile clinic staff has used this clinic for a grant-funded project to do trap-neuter-return for community cats in zip code 77087. In addition, it has been doing free pit bull surgeries for another grant-funded program in 77011 and 77012. 1340306 1146348 The San Antonio Spay-Neuter and Animal Wellness Clinic is similarly a reduced-cost clinic open to the general public. In FY2014, it performed 10,107 dog and cat sterilizations and treated 4,392 wellness patients. It is also part of a sweeping effort spearheaded by Best Friends Animal Society to do TNR for community cats in fourteen zip codes with the most serious cat overpopulation. In FY2014 it sterilized 725 cats for the project. The city of San Antonio contracts with SNAP to provide free sterilization for cats and dogs without regard to income qualifications of their guardians limited to twenty-one zip codes. Our mobile clinic in San Antonio sterilized 532 animals, and the fixed clinic did 3,730 for the city in this program. 882825 357541 Mobile Clinic Projects:The Houston Mobile Clinic Project provides free spay-neuter for the cats and dogs of income-qualifying people in their own neighborhoods. The project sterilized 4,541 animals in FY2014, turning away 1,096 for lack of space. Some highlights of the fiscal year are as follows. The Houston mobile clinic, having completed our two-year Zip Code Project in 77011, started a new zip code project in 77087 for community cats. It sterilized all of the 984 cats, who were returned to the location where they were picked up, in the first year and are ahead of schedule to complete our second year. The rest went to the Pasadena clinic. The project also includes some domestic cats; twenty-two were sterilized in FY2014. Based on BARC data, there appears to have been a 23.6 percent drop in the number of cats surrendered to the shelter between 2012 and 2013. BARC's ACOs do not pick up community cats under normal circumstances, so those cats admitted to the shelter would be citizen turn-ins. We appear to have made a positive difference for cats in this zip code. We also completed the project started in FY2013 at Allen Parkway Village in an attempt to do TNR for 100 percent of the wandering cats there. A total of fifty-seven more cats were sterilized in July and August with only four evasive male cats remaining. We have been able to continue helping rescue efforts in the Corridor of Cruelty and Neglect because foundations are touched by the plight of this place. In FY2014 we raised enough funding to make fourteen trips to the Corridor and sterilize 331 dogs and cats, including twenty-six rescues. We have been raising the consciousness of the area quite successfully and had to turn away sixty-four animals for lack of space. Since many are large dogs, they take up a lot of room on the clinic. We try our best to get them in elsewhere as soon as possible, especially the rescues. The mobile clinic neutered eighty male cats during our Neuter Scooter event for World Spay Day on February 25th. We accomplished this in collaboration with Harris County Veterinary Public Health (HCVPH), where we parked and where we were provided indoor recovery space. Dr. William Folger, former SNAP chief of staff, also volunteered his veterinary services as he has every year since the event started. We had the goal of neutering eighty cats and made it.The Wharton County Stray Pet Outreach Team sponsored nine days at sites within Wharton County, totaling 187 sterilized animals. We made five trips to Liberty County for 128 spays and neuters total, an anonymous foundation paying for four trips and the Liberty County Rotary Club the fifth. Fort Bend County used the mobile clinic twelve times, totaling 218 surgeries. Twenty-six trips out of county yielded 533 spays and neuters. In FY2014, the San Antonio mobile clinic sterilized 3,100 animals, 99.8 percent of those free to people on need-based public assistance, turning away 704 animals in Bexar County and eighteen out of county for space considerations. On September 11th, SNAP scheduled an unpublished surgery day at the San Antonio AIDS Foundations main location. The idea was to gauge the need for a possible grant to fund spay-neuter surgeries for low-income clients living with HIV/AIDS. SAAF was able to schedule seven dogs with only two weeks notice.On World Spay Day, Texas A&M San Antonio sponsored the mobile clinic in an effort to tackle the stray dog population at the campus. The San Antonio mobile clinic performed spay-neuter surgery for twenty-six animals. Forty-six trips out of Bexar County resulted in a total of 1,511 dogs and cats being sterilized for free who otherwise would not have been. We made four trips to Comal County, two trips to Bandera County, one trip to Kendall County, twelve trips to Medina County, and eleven trips to Atascosa County. The city of Laredo health department in Webb County brought SNAP to Laredo fifteen times to sterilize 572 animals. Also out of Bexar County was a weeklong trip to American Samoa. Soul Dog Rescue invited SNAP on this trip and paid for the SNAP teams airfare, lodging, and meals. The Samoa Department of Agriculture and nonprofit animal rescue group Alofa Mo Mealoa hosted the event and provided the coordination with the local communities to inform the public of the clinics and physically went out to trap and bring the animals into the clinics. Dr. Lawler performed 166 of the 190 surgeries. American Samoa has a history of inadequate veterinary facilities, untrained and unlicensed veterinarians, and an inability to deal with animal overpopulation, resulting in bad outcomes for many animals. We did 532 surgeries for Animal Care Services on the mobile clinic in FY2014. The San Antonio mobile clinic was able to sterilize 224 community cats in FY2014. 5393554 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false false false true false false false false false false false true false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 8 0 true 82 true false false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false false false false X 10 10 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true true false X X X JR Valdez 7138623863 7155 Old Katy Road Suite N290 Houston TX 77024 Neil Sackheim President 4.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Kate Smargiasso Vice President 4.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Linne Girouard Secretary 4.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Nell Turk Treasurer 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Catarina Gonzales Cron Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Genevieve Luce Eichner Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Jason Luong Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Francisco Sanchez Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Terry Blair Sidwell Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Sonia Soto Board Member 4.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Hector Villareal Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 David L Smith Executive Dir. 40.00 0.00 X 62115 0 22 JR Valdez Dir. of Finance 40.00 0.00 X 76320 0 8018 Laura Welch Development Dir 40.00 0.00 X 62880 0 8018 Mary Kate Lawler D.V.M 50.00 0.00 X 148484 0 3687 Leonard King D.V.M 40.00 0.00 X 104477 0 7686 Naomi Turner D.V.M 40.00 0.00 X 102934 0 3783 Oswell Jaxxon D.V.M 40.00 0.00 X 102058 0 7844 Genevieve Keillor D.V.M 40.00 0.00 X 102039 0 8018 761307 47076 5 false true false ADP TotalSource 5800 Windward Pkwy Alpharetta GA 30005 Employee leasing 156074 1 7679 1713611 5449 1721290 Veterinary services 900099 4186297 4186297 4186297 3111 3111 0 0 0 0 9653 7679 10166 -513 -513 0 1210874 628709 582165 582165 0 6492350 4768462 2598 0 0 0 0 271667 237247 16601 17819 0 2825795 2468429 172097 185269 0 32215 27314 2690 2211 279610 244249 17029 18332 0 0 20315 20315 0 0 0 453036 403815 23421 25800 12547 378 12169 298407 239473 22348 36586 141678 81508 21833 38337 0 307374 252589 28113 26672 36033 18986 6924 10123 0 0 0 0 135920 134468 1452 37384 29611 4934 2839 Veterinary medical supplies 1168209 1168209 Equipment purchases & repair 73400 68424 2552 2424 Dues, subscriptions, licenses 12551 10302 295 1954 Other expenses 12383 8552 1681 2150 0 6118524 5393554 342285 382685 122845 179772 375101 44520 322218 1176934 107549 86249 0 0 0 88262 85307 21469 23275 1633626 797448 969550 836178 0 15000 15000 0 0 0 2021994 2447235 516490 567905 516490 567905 X 1028106 1493739 477398 385591 1505504 1879330 2021994 2447235 373826 X false true X true false X 1087368 1200781 1027766 1625744 1721290 6662949 0 52800 52800 105600 1087368 1200781 1027766 1678544 1774090 6768549 1479887 5288662 5806 2476 3404 3193 3111 17990 0 0 6786539 22512559 0.77930 0.88050 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 590094 145837 444257 1043532 651611 391921 836178 6545150 52800 52800 6492350 6492350 6171324 52800 52800 6118524 6118524 false Casino Night 17332 7679 9653 4877 2200 3089 17332 7679 9653 4877 2200 3089 10166 -513 true X X X X X false false false false false false false false false false Mary Kate Lawler D.V.M 148484 3687 152171 Magda Serrano Offcr's sister 43066 Employee compensation false Form 990, Part VI, Line 11b: Form 990 Review Process The draft version of the 990 is presented to the Director of Finance and Accounting for preliminary review before it is forwarded to the Executive Director and the board.
