Dear Animal Welfare Professional, As our name clearly states, we are all about advancing animal welfare. We value our strategic partnerships with other leaders in the field, including The Association of Shelter Veterinarians (ASV).
Did you know The Association has a Career Center where you can look for and post new opportunities? We’ll be highlighting some of them here on the blog every month. Program Assistant, Red RoverSacramento, CA-based (and will consider remote arrangement) This position serves as case manager for grant programs, tracks data for program reporting, writes and identifies stories and fundraising ops, assists with telephone support, and works efficiently and compassionately with relief grant applications.
The Association’s Pres & CEO, Jim Tedford, recently sat down with Pethealth Inc.’s Steve Zeidman and the winners of the 2020 Diane & Bob Hoover Annual Innovation Award.
As the veterinarian shortage increases, finding one is becoming like finding a unicorn. A recent study estimates a shortage of 10,000 veterinarians in the next 10 years.
As we put our 2020 fundraising plans together, no one in the nonprofit world could have predicted the year ahead. The field quickly adapted as the pandemic hit, and by year’s end a picture had emerged: A study by RKD Group and The Nonprofit Alliance showed that donors had still more to give, and larger donors in particular.
Dear Friends, I hope the New Year finds you healthy and safe. On behalf of my co-chair, Amanda Arrington, and the entire Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion Committee for The Association, I’m inviting you to join us this Tuesday, January 19, for The National Day of Racial Healing.
