<strong>The</strong> <strong>Sato</strong> <strong>Project</strong> team would like to extend a heartfelt<br />
“Thank You” to everyone who has generously supported our rescue<br />
and community outreach efforts over the last year. During an<br />
especially trying time in Puerto Rico’s history, your donations have<br />
helped us save lives, end suffering, and build permanent change for<br />
the dogs and people on the island.<br />
THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS WORK POSSIBLE<br />
Due to a combination of economic hardship, infrequent spaying and neutering,<br />
and the mass exodus of residents since the devastation of Hurricane Maria, an<br />
estimated 500,000 stray dogs are a sad reality of life on Puerto Rico. Many of these<br />
dogs are suffering and struggling to survive. Founded in 2011 by Chrissy Beckles,<br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>Sato</strong> <strong>Project</strong> is dedicated to ending this suffering and helping as many of<br />
these satos (“stray dogs”) as possible find the safe, loving lives they deserve.<br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>Sato</strong> <strong>Project</strong> is working to make permanent change in Puerto Rico through a<br />
threefold mission: 1. rescuing, rehabilitating and rehoming abandoned and abused<br />
dogs; 2. addressing the underlying causes of overpopulation, abandonment,<br />
and abuse through community outreach and low-cost spay, neuter, and vaccine<br />
programs; 3. bringing international attention to the problem of abandoned and<br />
abused dogs in Puerto Rico.<br />
