Nonprofit Overview
Causes: Animals
Mission: We believe all animals are deserving of life, respect and care. Our goal is zero-population-growth through spay/neuter programs and services that focus on education, medical care, fostering and adoption. Friends of manchester animal shelter is a non-profit organization which started in 1996. The shelter takes in homeless, abused, and abandoned animals in the city of manchester. We provide shelter, medical care, and spay/neuter to every animal that comes through our doors. Over the past 15 years, the shelter has helped provide care and find loving homes for over 15,000 animals.
Programs: Adoption & shelter - we provide shelter, medical care, and spay/neuter to every animal that comes through our doors. We placed 857 animals into permanent, loving homes over the past year.
quick fix program - a low cost spay/neuter program for low income residents of manchester. The clinic will spay/neuter and give vaccines to cats that are owned by low income families of manchester. The clinics are held twice a month. This is a very important program for the shelter - spay/neuter is the only way to reduce the number of stray cats and kittens that come into our shelter. It was established in october of 2009, and over 960 animals were spayed or neutered this fiscal year.
fix a pit - a program to encourage responsible pit bull ownership and ultimately lower the euthanasia rate of the breed and unwanted puppies/adults. Pit bulls have become the breed of choice and consequently are flooding animal shelters. An estimated 1/3 of dogs that enter shelters are pit bulls or pit bull mixes. Our program includes free spay/neuter, free rabies vaccination and free microchip. This program helped owners of 102 pit bulls in the city of manchester this fiscal year.
