Seward Animal Shelter Pet Vaccination Clinic
BACKGROUND & JUSTIFICATION'
The City of Seward Animal Shelter is organizing a low-cost Vaccine Clinic for the Seward/Moose
Pass resident who own cats and dogs. Even though the Seward Animal Shelter typically only serves
the residents inside the city limits of Seward, many residents outside the city bring their animals into
town. Having properly vaccinated animals in our community is vitally important to the health and
welfare of everyone and their pets. There has not been a low-cost vaccine clinic in Seward since
2015. While some pet owners are able to see the veterinarian for their pet's yearly vaccines, many
people me not able to afford the visit and therefore many pets go without being vaccinated. In
addition, our Animal Control Officer is qualified to administer the shots. The Seward Community
Foundation has awarded a grant in the amount of $600.00 for the vaccination clinic. Approximate
date of the clinic is Jane 9, 2018.
This program is a 100% grant funded project, with no local matching funds required.
The terms of the grant and the grant budget are attached.
INTENT:
The intent of this grant is to provide Seward/Moose Pass residents with the opportunityto vaccinate
their pets at a low cost.
