Fix Georgia Pets in the Media
We’re turning up the volume across Georgia’s media outlets, sharing our mission to dramatically decrease the number of pets facing euthanasia in our overcrowded shelters through increased spay/neuter. By empowering organizations across every Georgia county with grants, we’re making it a little easier for each community to access low or no-cost spay/neuter services. And, in creating this statewide network of care and support, we’re ensuring every pet has a chance at a healthier, safer future.

In each segment, Tricia educated Georgians about how Fix Georgia Pets is making it happen.
