Giving Tuesday Spotlight: RTR Spay and Neuter 🐾 — Give Hope, Save Lives

Every year, the global movement Giving Tuesday reminds us of the power of generosity and kindness. This year, we invite you to join us at RTR Spay and Neuter to make a real difference in the lives of animals and our community on the island of Roatán.

🏡 Why RTR Spay and Neuter Needs Your Support

At RTR, our mission is simple but vital: to increase access to hold free Spay and Neuter Clinics twice a year and promote responsible pet ownership across Roatán.

• We offer free spay/neuter clinics to help control pet overpopulation, prevent unwanted litters, and improve animal health — whether the pet is owned or community-animal.

• Through outreach and education, we work to connect pet owners with veterinarians, and share resources about proper care, hygiene, and long-term pet health.

• Past clinics have already helped hundreds — in 2023, 250 animals were altered over two days; in 2024, 464 animals during another clinic, and again more in 2025. As of August 2025 we have spayed and neutered 1,303 animals.

Because of you, animals get a second chance — healthy, cared for, and no longer threatened

by overpopulation or neglect.

❤️ What Giving Tuesday Can Do for RTR

Giving Tuesday is more than a day — it’s a chance to transform lives. By supporting RTR, you help us:

• Cover surgical, medical, and after-care costs for spay/neuter clinics so they can stay free for the community.

• Expand our education & outreach programs — from bilingual materials to animated videos that teach proper pet care.

• Provide continued veterinary access and resources to pet owners who might otherwise go without.

Every donation — big or small — brings us closer to a future where every pet in Roatán has a safe, healthy home.

🌟 How You Can Help TODAY (This Giving Tuesday)

• Donate — a one-time or recurring gift helps keep our clinics free and sustainable.

• Volunteer your time or skills — even sharing posts, helping with outreach, or organizing mini-fundraisers helps.

🐶 Why Spay/Neuter Matters — For Pets and People

Spaying or neutering pets offers huge benefits:

• Healthier, longer lives — reduced risks of cancers and dangerous infections.

• Better behavior — fewer tendencies to roam, fight, or spray/mark territory.

• Helps prevent the birth of unwanted litters, reducing stray populations and easing pressure on shelters.

When our pets are healthy and our community is educated, we all benefit — from happier families to safer, cleaner neighborhoods.
