Animal Shelter Alliance of Portland Receives $180,000 Grant for Special Project

The Animal Shelter Alliance of Portland (ASAP), of which MCAS is a founding member, recently received a $180,000 grant from the ASPCA. The funds will be used to support The Neighborhood Pet Project, a new ASAP program which provides extra assistance for cat and Pitbull owners in a specifically targeted area of Portland. The type of assistance can vary depending on the pet owner's needs. Cat and Pitbull owners who reside in Portland neighborhoods of Hazelwood and Mill Park (within zip codes 97216, 97220, 97230, and 97233) can receive free spay/neuters, vaccines, licenses, microchips, tags, collars, crates, fences and more. Anyone meeting the conditions can ask for whatever type of help they need in order to be responsible pet owners. ASAP program administrators will work with residents to determine if requests are feasible. Please see the downloadable PDF for complete information about this program or download the flier to pass along to friends and neighbors. To apply, please contact Kelly at 503-802-6738 or kellyp@oregonhumane.org.
