Fort Bend County Social Services will host its first annual National Nonprofit Day event, Fort Bend Serves, on Saturday, August 17, 2019 from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm at participating nonprofits.

Local nonprofits across the county will collaborate on this day to showcase the importance of their organization and work in the Fort Bend community. Fort Bend County is home to numerous nonprofit organizations serving a rapidly growing community with changing demographics, social, and economic needs. Interested individuals, groups and families will have an opportunity to tour the facility/facilities of their choice.

After the tour, we are asking everyone to act on his or her passion and sign-up to volunteer, make a donation or become an agency advocate.

“Sherita J. Herring, a renowned speaker, best-selling author and business strategist, founded National Nonprofit Day to educate, enlighten and empower others to make a difference, while acknowledging those that are in the trenches, impacting lives every day – the Change-Makers of the World!” (The National Day Calendar)

Fort Bend County Animal Services will hold a Ribbon Cutting Ceremony July 18 at 4 p.m. for its new Intake Facility at 1210 Blume Road in Rosenberg.

The facility, now ready for medical staff and pets, features an intake room where new pets are screened for a microchip, receive initial vaccinations, and get a medical check-up. It also has two rooms dedicated to cats, one for quarantine of cats involved in bite investigations and the other for sick cats that require isolation. The new facility will also add 24 dog kennels and 12 quarantine kennels. Additionally, the Intake Facility has a new surgical suite for spay/neuter surgeries, medical office, conference/training room, and an office area for Animal Control Officers when they return from the field so they can enter animal information into the shelter’s software.

“We are really excited to add this new facility to the shelter. Our pets deserve the best initial medical evaluation we can give them, and now with our new veterinary and surgical suite for spay/neuter, we will be able to go above and beyond our current capability,” said Rene Vasquez, Animal Services Director.

Other areas in the new facility include a bathing room, whelping room for expectant moms and puppies, a large food storage room, and a laundry and storage room for the medical staff.

In the future, Animal Services will add three new play yards near the facility. The play yards will be funded through an ASPCA grant to ensure the Dogs Playing for Life program continues, giving shelter dogs the opportunity to play and socialize every day.
