Form 990, Part III, Line 4d
Form 990, Part III, Line 4d: Other Program Services Description
OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 4: Public education is one of the ways we accomplish our mission. We use all media to spread the word about spay-neuternewspapers, radio, TV, and the Internet. We also make personal contacts by participation in public events, networking meetings, and lectures/workshops. In San Antonio, flyer distribution in FY2013 totaled 21,409, by mail, email, and fax; posting; personal distribution at public events; and availability at our clinics. The total of personal contacts through thirteen lectures (730), three tours (350), and five public events (945) was 2,025. We made a presentation at West Avenue Apartments; participated in the Deiz 7 Seis de Septiembre parade; attended Career Day at Linton Elementary School, did another lecture/tour at South San Antonio High School Academy of Health Sciences; spoke to House of Teens, a nonprofit after school program for middle and high school students; and did a workshop at Soaring Heights Leadership Academy. Public events included Bark in the Park, Pucks for Paws night at the San Antonio Rampage hockey team game, the Petco 5K9 Walk/Run, the San Antonio Pet Expo, and the San Antonio chapter of the Texas Young Professionals meeting, where Dr. Lawler spoke and received a monetary award on behalf of SNAP. In Houston, in terms of outreach/education efforts, we distributed 31,129 calendars this year-by mail, fax, or email; posting at key locations; distribution by animal control officers; distribution to the media; and availability at the mobile clinic. Many of the calendars are delivered personally to health clinics, multi-service centers, WIC offices, Food Stamp offices, food pantries, etc., some two or three times a week, where staff or volunteers speak about our program directly with people who gather at these places, hand them a flyer, and enlist their aid in spreading the word about animal overpopulation and SNAP, thus creating 2,759 "neighborhood volunteers" in FY2013. The total number of outreach contacts in FY2013 was 2,819. Personal contacts made through networking and coordinating meetings certainly helped garner both support and work for the mobile clinic. Staff attended eighteen meetings, making fifty-six contacts. Media attention continued to be given to SNAP. We had good story coverage of our events for World Spay Day, our community cat program, and our trips to the Corridor in print, on TV and radio, and on the Internet, which are other outlets for SNAPs public education work. Univision puts our TNR events on its online calendar page, and we got into Semana, a Spanish language newspaper in the East End, the area of the project. Websites that regularly advertise our events are KTRHs Animal House, KHOUs Animal Attraction, World Spay Day, Houston SPCA, ASPCA, Houston Homeless Pet Placement League, Lovethatcat.com, eRescue Houston, This Week in Houston, Department of Health and Human Services, NeuterNeuter Land, Craigs List, Insider Pages, Texas Dogs and Cats, Best Friends, BARC, and Citizens for Animal Protection. Of special note is coverage by Houston Media Source (access television) of our first trip to Allen Parkway Village in November. Unfortunately, SNAP was contacted when we had no time for an interview. The broadcast used pictures taken during the trapping process and the sterilization day. The show was broadcast on November 29th at 6:30 P.M. on Comcast Channel 17. A total of 267 public service announcements were sent to relevant area newspapers on a regular basis. Of the twenty-three newspapers in Harris County's media guide, we regularly contacted eighteen that were appropriate for mobile clinic locations.
Form 990, Part III, Line 2
Form 990, Part III, Line 2: New Services
In November 2012, SNAP opened a new fixed spay-neuter and wellness clinic in Pasadena, Texas. It provides reduced-cost spays and neuters for cats and dogs as well as wellness services. 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. In FY2013, this clinic performed 3,538 surgeries and saw 1,319 wellness patients.
