If you volunteer with Spay/Panama, we provide airport transportation, lodging, meals and laundry in exchange for a donation of surgical supplies (sutures, needles, antibiotics, flea and tick medication, etc.).
You will have to share your space with some friendly rescued animals, including our newest member, Lolita, a cat who lost a kidney, and Rancho the dog who was rescued after a mean person hit him with a machete.
