SOCA – FBC is a non-profit, 501c3 organization run solely by volunteers dedicated to saving and improving the lives of companion animals.
Our Mission
Saving Our Companion Animals – Fort Bend County (SOCA-FBC) is a nonprofit, 501(c)(3) organization. SOCA-FBC is dedicated to saving and improving the lives of companion animals and promoting responsible pet ownership in Fort Bend County, TX. Our 100% volunteer organization helps sick/injured animals, urgent or needy shelter pets, and community animals needing to be re-homed. We render assistance to our local shelters. We believe that becoming a community that cares for its pets starts with Education, Assistance and Accountability. We rely 100% on contributions from the public and your generous support in providing foster homes for the pets in need.
Volunteers needed!
SOCA’s success depends on our wonderful volunteers! And we need to make sure current volunteers aren’t overloaded! So we’re currently seeking several positions to help out.
Update: We have a new SOCA-FBC Dog Adoption Coordinator!
But we still need two volunteers to coordinate our adoption events at local pet stores and businesses – one person for cats and another for dogs. See job description at SOCA-FBC Event Coordinators Dogs/Cats Job Description
Thank you to recent SOCA supporters!
We’re very thankful for Petco Love’s on-going support and partnership with SOCA! This April, they provided a $6,500 grant to help us take in and care for more homeless animals. Over the past 2 years, Ft. Bend Co. has experienced a significant increase in homeless animals. Reasons include pet owners having trouble affording food and medical care for their pets.
Last year, Petco provided a grant to help us care for harder-to-place dogs at temporary boarding facilities until we could find loving homes for them. We’ve since been able to move all of our boarders into foster or forever homes.
SOCA is very grateful for the continued support that Houston PetSet has provided over the past few years. Last fall, we received a generous donation from HPS to help us continue moving homeless and shelter animals into foster families, providing medical care for them, and placing those animals in forever homes.
