Scholarships Available: SPCA Monterey County is offering scholarships to children who would otherwise be unable to attend Animal Camp, thanks to the generous support of our donors. These spots will be drawn in a lottery system after camp registration is finalized for the season. Scholarships will pay for camp registration in full, but they cannot refund a camp that has already been registered for. Apply online at www.spcamc.org/camp-scholarship.

SPCA Monterey County is your nonprofit, independent, donor-supported humane society that has been serving the animals and people of Monterey County since 1905. The SPCA is not a chapter of any other agency and does not have a parent organization. They shelter homeless, neglected and abused pets and livestock, and provide humane education and countless other services to the community. They are the local agency you call to investigate animal cruelty, rescue and rehabilitate injured wildlife, and aid domestic animals in distress.
