!! NOTICE !!

DUE TO THE PASSING OF ZAPP FOUNDER STEVEN FORMAN, ZAPP IS NO LONGER ACTIVE.

Please continue to support the animals. In San Felipe, "Volunteers for Indigent and Vulnerable Animals" or VIVA has been formed to fill the void left by Steven's passing. It's a collaboration of volunteers from the two former animal care groups, ZAPP and San Felipe Animal Rescue.


For more information on VIVA visit their website.

ZAPP is an acronym for the "Zero Additional "PUP-ulation Project". ZAPP was founded by Steven Forman in 2006. We are a no-kill organization operating in San Felipe, Baja, California. ZAPP is committed to spaying and neutering up to 200 animals a month, so we can finally achieve zero additional population growth and stop city wide roundups forever, which end in euthanasia of our innocent stray and indigent street population. Through our "SHOES FOR SPAYS" Project we take donations of gently worn to brand new men's or women's shoes and turn them into money for sterilization surgeries, using our shoe store on eBAY. The link for the store can be found on the right side of this page, by scrolling down.
The ZAPP Spay/Neuter Project deals with the most immediate problem at hand, which like all cities and towns in Mexico, is fertility. Please send your resell-able shoes to: "SHOES FOR SPAYS", 95 EAST HIGHWAY 98, CALEXICO CA 92232.

"SHOES for SPAYS" Helps Control Stray & Indigent Cat & Dog "Pup"-ulation!

"SHOES for SPAYS"
How One Spay/Neuter Project in Mexico
Raises Funds to Control the Indigent Animal Population


ZAPP, the Zero Additional Pup-ulation and Anti-Electrocution Project in San Felipe, has found a very effective way to raise money to support our spay/neuter project in San Felipe, Baja. By seeking out “shoe addicts” (nothing to be ashamed of) and animal lovers alike, that want to turn "no longer worn shoes" into funds for spay/neuter surgeries, we will happily take donated men’s and women’s shoes, detail them, and resell them out of our eBay Shoe Store.

This idea has allowed ZAPP to spay and neuter thousands of animals, at a rate of 100 per month, and a cost of $30 per surgery. Funds are unavailable here in Mexico for a project such as this, so ZAPP asks that you “please send your unwanted re-sellable shoes to us, so we can continue our work” A Pair of Shoes can Save an Animals Life in Mexico! Shoes can be sent to:
