The Springs SPCA held their AGM on Friday night.
At last year’s AGM, the SPCA found themselves in a difficult financial situation.
During that time, the society was in arrears and lacking funds from government.
However this year, in May, the SPCA received a massive donation from the City of Ekurhuleni.

They have also received numerous donations from individuals and companies.
Successful fund-raising events have also relieved some of the pressure.

Committee member Clinton Uys says: “The SPCA is now in one of the best positions it has ever been in.
“We feel more acceptance and understanding from the community and that has really boosted our financials.
“Last year this time I couldn’t even have imagined us recovering so well, and that is all due to our donors and the public.”
The committee also thanked all staff members, volunteers and donors for their hard work and positive mindset.
