Spay/Neuter Brigade Trips

Join the Foundation for Cultural Exchange, along with veterinarians from Mexico and local Salvadoran veterinarians, on an annual Spay/Neuter Brigade in El Espino, El Salvador to improve the health and well-being of both residents and animals! To view a recap of a previous campaign, click here.

The trip includes cultural activities in and around the capital city of San Salvador in addition to the three-day spay/neuter campaign in our sister city. The all-inclusive cost covers your air transportation, lodging, travel insurance, and meals while in the country. (Total trip cost ranges from $1800-2000, depending on the price of airfare.) If you are interested in traveling with the brigade, please fill out the form below and we will contact you directly with registration information. Space is limited, so save your spot today!

The budget for this spay/neuter campaign is approximately $15,000, which covers the supplies needed to provide all the surgeries, medications, and vaccinations free of cost. The community of El Espino lives at or below the poverty line, so this ensures that no animals go unaltered simply because of an inability to pay. We are requesting half of the funding from corporate sponsors and foundations (including in-kind requests for supplies), but are calling on our community to help us raise the other half.

Due to current conditions in El Salvador, spay and neuter campaigns are currently suspended.
