ALTON – To help support the Spay Neuter Illinois Pet Alliance, a non-profit organization that provides low-cost spay and neutering to low income families, state Reps. Monica Bristow, D-Godfrey, and Katie Stuart, D-Edwardsville, are extending their pet supply drive into the month of May.
"Organizations like SNIP Alliance are vital to our community. SNIP helps to combat the overpopulation epidemic of dogs and cats by not only offering low-cost services but also by educating the community on the importance of spaying or neutering your pet,” said Bristow. “I think it's important that we help our organizations so that they may continue helping our community."
