Our Financial Aims
The Proud Paws animal transport truck is pivotal to our success, as it
will be used to carry dogs and cats to and from the veterinary clinic
for spaying and neutering. Funds in excess of $30,000 were provided for
the purchase of this truck, and other start-up costs, by Caves Village
Development Ltd.
In order to cover the operating expenses of Proud Paws we need to raise
at least $120,000 per annum. Projected expenses for the first two years
of our operations are below.
We anticipate that the majority of these funds will come from the Annual Corporate Sponsorship program, including the funds already
pledged by our main benefactor, Caves Village Development Ltd.
Additional funds will come from concerned animal lovers in the form of
annual membership fees. For more information, please view the Proud Paws Annual Corporate
Sponsorship program and the Individual Annual Membership program.
Smaller donations will be raised through Proud Paws? collection boxes,
which will be placed in strategic locations thoughout the island.
