Thank you so much to our generous supporters that made our Big Give event such a hit! Through this event we were able to raise $23,704 to support our work with community cats! As our biggest fundraiser of the year, this 24-hour event helps to sustain our important programs and services throughout the year. We appreciate your support!

SAFCC receives $5,000 grant
Many thanks to the Hollomon Price Foundation for their recent charitable contribution in the amount of $5,000 to the San Antonio Feral Cat Coalition. Last year, SAFCC sent a Trapper Team member to assist a business owner with trapping and fixing some of the feral cats that visited his business. Fortunately for us, the owner was part of the executive board for the foundation and recommended SAFCC as a recipient!
Our Trapper Team traps cats for the elderly and disabled, and for those who can pay to have TNR done for cats they are feeding. The funds granted will go to assist with trap-neuter-return (TNR) of feral cats in San Antonio. We are so grateful for this donation to support our TNR efforts!
