When The Sato Project was founded in 2011, our work began by rescuing one dog at a time from Dead Dog Beach as finances would allow. 12 years later, we have grown into a global community of volunteers, adopters, donors, and voices speaking up on behalf of the abandoned and abused dogs of Puerto Rico. We have flown and vetted over 7,500 dogs to loving homes in the mainland US, spay/neutered and vaccinated over 9,500 animals, and distributed 150K lbs of disaster relief supplies across the island in the wake of Puerto Rico's multiple natural disasters. We also reunited for 243 dogs and cats with their families in the mainland after a natural disaster.

For over a decade, The Sato Project has fought back against insurmountable odds and unprecedented challenges to keep saving lives and building permanent change for the animals and people of Puerto Rico. This program report highlights how The Sato Project is fighting the overpopulation crisis at its core.

The challenges in Puerto Rico are far from over, and there are still many desperate animals and pet owners who need our help. But we remain steadfast in our commitment to create lasting change for the animals of this island. Thank you to all those who continue to make this work possible.
