The RSPCA Sydney Shelter in Yagoona was recently awarded a grant for the amount of $48,900 as part of the NSW Government’s Community Building Partnership program. Member for Auburn, Barbara Perry MP visited the Sydney Shelter on Tuesday, 25 January 2011 to congratulate the not-for-profit animal welfare organisation on receiving the grant and to see first-hand where the money will be utilised.

RSPCA NSW is a charity that relies upon the generosity of the community to fund its RSPCA Shelters, Volunteer Branches, Inspectorate, programs, services and the daily fight to prevent animal cruelty.
One of the most generous forms of funding the RSPCA receives is through grants, disbursed from institutions or foundations who share an equal concern for animal welfare and who support the vital work the RSPCA undertakes within the community.
