At the Spay-Neuter Assistance Program (SNAP), our mission is to prevent the suffering of companion animals and strengthen the human-animal bond by providing accessible, affordable spay/neuter and veterinary care.
Our clinics are busy every day helping pets in need—and we go through supplies quickly. As a nonprofit, we depend on the generosity of our community to keep our doors open and our shelves stocked. In-kind donations such as towels and cleaning supplies are just as valuable as monetary gifts, helping us lower costs and serve more pets.
From October 20–24, 2025 (10 AM–4 PM), SNAP will be hosting a Donation Drive to collect supplies and monetary contributions for our clinics. Drop off location is Spay-Neuter & Animal Wellness Clinic at 6758 Ingram Road, 78238.
Last year alone, donated goods saved SNAP over $72,000, allowing us to provide even more affordable spay/neuter and preventive care for local pets.
