What a Difference An Afternoon
Makes
Four times each year, East Bay
SPCA volunteers and staff team up to vaccinate hundreds of dogs
in a single afternoon at local parks in underserved East Bay
communities. Our most recent event took place in Richmond at
Nicholl Park, where we helped dogs belonging to over
400 local residents. These important
events not only help prevent disease pet overpopulation as
we educate attendees about the benefits of
spaying/neutering.
Our members help make these life-saving events
possible. On behalf of the thousands of dogs and people we
serve through these events each year, we thank
you!
Volunteers, members and staff come
together
to save lives at our vaccination
fairs.
