  • 1.  Low cost Rx programs for staff

    Posted 3 days ago

    Hello all, 

    I am inquiring about employee discount programs that you may be privy to or offer your shelter staff. This would include partnerships with prescription companies or food manufacturers. 

    Let's face it, most shelter employees are not making bank doing important work so what do you offer to staff or what programs have you found to help offset costs to care for their pets? Thank you for any information you are willing to share.

    For our staff, we offer 50% off spays/neuters and any preventive medication they can buy at cost.  If they need other medications and we have them in stock, they can also buy them at cost.  We have teamed up with Shelters United, which has a pharmacy that offer 10% discount for staff/Volunteers and will donate 5% to our organization.
