Nonprofit Category: D - Animal-Related
Exempt Status: 501(c)(3) (IRS Form 990 Filed)

Our mission is to save at-risk shelter pets through rescue, community involvement and education.

Our vision is to inspire and involve communities, organizations, and individuals in SVPP's life-saving work.

SVPP rescues, rehabilitates, and rehomes both cats and dog of all breeds, as well as senior and special-needs pets, that are at risk of euthanasia. These animals may need significant medical or behavioral care. We value our partnership with the San Jose Animal Care Center (SJACC), Silicon Valley's largest municipal animal shelter, Tricity Animal Shelter in Fremont, and County of Santa Clara Animal Services and work closely with them on special-needs cases.

As we have no central facility, rescued pets are fostered and nurtured in volunteers' homes in the Bay Area. 

While a significant portion of our time and resources goes to assessing, rehabilitating, and rehoming these at-risk animals, we are also focused on bringing awareness to the plight of homeless animals in Silicon Valley and providing guidance to the community on how they can help.
