Categories: Animals Community Environment Health Social Services . It's very, very simple - almost silly simple, really. It costs $50 to purchase a humane trap to capture a homeless cat who needs to be spayed/neutered, microchipped, vaccinated and disease tested. Humane Society Silicon Valley has humane traps that can help our community members trap homeless cats so that we can provide everything they need to be placed back into their colonies where caring people can take care of them while they live out the rest of their lives.

Provide vaccines, microchips and tests for deadly diseases that can spread to an entire colony of homeless cats. Even though homeless cats traditionally have shortened life spans, we can help these helpless creatures live safer, healthier lives. With your support, HSSV will provide vaccinations, combo testing and microchips at cost...just $21 per cat. As a starting goal, we're going to try to raise $1,050 to provide these items for 50 cats in the month of October.

Categories: Children and Youth Community Education International . Room to Read’s Room to Grow Girls' Scholarship Program has an immediate and direct impact on the lives of thousands of girls in the developing world. An education provides security and support to girls who often grow up in very uncertain environments and empowers them to make informed life decisions. A solid education beginning in the early years is the key ingredient for improved status for women, which provides a ripple of positive effects throughout society. Through this project, you can fund girls' scholarships in Cambodia, India, Laos, Nepal, Sri Lanka or Vietnam. These long-term, holistic scholarships make it possible for a girl, who would otherwise not have access to an education, to attend school through the secondary level. You can fund a one year girl's scholarship for $250 or a ten year girl's scholarship for $2,500.
