As the end of the year approaches, San Antonio Pets
Alive!'s (SAPA!) lifesaving team is working tirelessly to achieve our
ambitious goal of saving 1,000 animals before September comes to a close.
We're pulling out all the stops, and one of our key initiatives is an adoption special aimed at helping potential pet parents
fall in love with a rescue pet.
That's not all happening at SAPA!; our biggest
fundraiser of the year, The Big Give, is just around the corner. We've set our
sights high, with a goal of raising $125,000 to
continue our life-saving work. Early donations are being accepted now, and we
wholeheartedly encourage you to contribute generously. Your support will make
a profoundly positive impact on the lives of animals in need. We have exciting
Matches and Sponsors ready to go, if you'd to join them a Match or Challenge
Sponsor to encourage the community, contact Aliyah Kuchinsky.
Speaking of
celebration, our Paws for Celebration event is right around the corner. We are
excited to gather with you, the incredible individuals who share our passion
for our life-saving mission. Buy a ticket and join us!
Thank you for your support and dedication to our lifesaving
mission!

Fosters of the
Month: Dani Nemeth
|
Dani Nemeth has been named San Antonio Pets
Alive!'s Foster of the Month for September, and her dedication to saving lives
is truly remarkable. Since 2020, she has been a beacon of hope for countless
animals in need. Dani's passion knows no bounds, as she generously fosters
kittens of all ages, earning her the well-deserved title of "kitten hero" from
SAPA!'s Foster Manager, Shelly.
Dani is not content with just fostering! She has
taken on the role of a mentor for new foster volunteers, sharing her knowledge
and experience with others. Her commitment extends beyond the city limits;
even when she's out of town, she doesn't hesitate to lend a hand. Dani keeps a
watchful eye on emergencies, like neonatal pleas, and tirelessly seeks
temporary foster care solutions until she can return to provide the care these
animals deserve. Dani Nemeth's unwavering dedication to saving lives is a
shining example of the great impact one person can have on their community and
the world of animal rescue.

Marsha is a
5-year-old Labrador, Retriever Mix! She is our longest stay adoptable pup and
has been in our care for more than one year. Marsha is a bit shy and takes
time to open to strangers. Once you gain her trust, her fun side will shine
through!

family.
