Save More Pets with These Valuable Tools
Discover All the Benefits You Receive As a Member of NAPRP!
When you join the NAPRP, you receive:
1. Two printed books specifically for adopted pet owners. (Pet education is vitally important!)
2. Free customization of the books' cover with your logo and group name. (Use the books as a profit center by purchasing them at wholesale prices as described here and here.)
3. Pet education articles you can modify for your own use. More than 100 articles that you can use in newsletters and hand out to adopters. There are Q&A articles and "pet pointers" articles that are three short articles on one "theme subject" like allergies. If you've been struggling to get people to write for your newsletter, these tidbits make great "filler" articles to save you time.
4. 101 Fundraising ideas specific to humane and rescue groups. (Sign up using the box on the right...it's free just for stopping by!)
5. Information on grant writing and available grants for rescues and other humane groups. Links to these resources can be updated and expanded upon by members using our "wiki" format, so you never have to be frustrated with broken links.
6. Worksheets for pledges, budgeting, contests, order forms, raffle tickets. All in word processing files, so you can add your logo and customize them for your group.
7. Templates for common files we all need, such as newsletters, brochures, business cards, and Web sites, which you can download instantly. These tutorial packages are sold elsewhere for $10 each.
8. Donation thank you cards and artwork for super easy fundraisers you can pull off with limited resources. Some of the artwork has been used to make money before, so it's proven that it catches people's eye!
9. Preadoption forms to help you match the right critter with the right home
10. Volunteer forms and information on managing volunteers and knowing when volunteers can become a liability. We've all experienced what happens when people don't get along. Nip problems in the bud!
11. Telephone forms, so you never lose another message, no matter how many volunteers are manning the desk. Easy fill-in-the-blank forms mean no more call backs for missing information.
12. Fax cover sheets for faxing found pet notices to local newspapers (many will list them for free). Get the word out about your animals.
13. Lost pet signs to hand out when people lose their dog or cat. They can fill in the blanks themselves, so leave a pile of them on your counter!
14. Incoming pet forms with questions to draw out information from reluctant humans. The forms include spaces for recording vaccinations and checking off procedures.
15. "Want forms" so you can keep track of the type of pets people want. When the animal comes in you are just a phone call away from a new home. This simple card filing system comes with the forms and simple instructions.
16. ID Tag Registration form. If you use numbered ID tags, use this to keep track of the pet that belongs to each ID.
17. Access to Our Private, Secure Members-only Discussion Board. If you've got questions; we've got answers. Get support from your peers in a moderated, private area without the flames and acrimony of many public online forums.
18. Teleseminars with experts from diverse humane organizations (attend the calls live or download the audio file to listen to later).
19. Our resource rolodex. This list of suppliers includes only those we have used ourselves or that come highly recommended. Everything from Web site hosting to printers is included.
20. Informative member newsletters. Find out what other members are doing and learn about upcoming events and happenings at NAPRP.

Membership
We offer memberships for large and small rescue organizations.
Individual Membership
If you are involved in or operate your own small rescue, an individual membership is $127/year. That's less than $10 a month to invest in you and your organization ... less than one bag of dog food.
Use this link to apply for membership now.
For larger companies, we offer other types of membership as well.
Humane Organization Membership
If you are affiliated with a large organization and would like multiple log-ins for your group, we also offer a Humane Organization membership. This membership is ideal if you have many different people using different computers in multiple locations. For $500/year, you receive six log ins for the private membership site. (That's like getting one log-in free!) You receive all the other benefits of the individual membership, so join now!
Vendor Membership
If you are a Vendor that offers products of interest to the humane and rescue community, you can sign up for a vendor membership for a $500 annual membership fee. Our members are looking for products and services that will help them save more lives. Can you help them? If so, join now.
You receive advertising opportunities and a sponsors Web page. Plus your advertising dollars make it possible for us to offer scholarship memberships to smaller, underfunded rescues.
Scholarship Programs
For every Vendor membership we receive, we can offer one scholarship. So if you are a small rescue that is worrying about the fee, find a pet-related vendor that supports your organization and tell them about NAPRP! Just be sure they put your name in the referral box when they join.
Another way small rescues can "pay their way" is using our Refer 3, Get Yours Free! program. Find other rescues and tell them about NAPRP. When they join, have them put YOUR NAME in the referral box. If you bring in three referrals, your Individual Membership is free for a year.
