National G2Z Summit
The National G2Z Summit to end Companion Animal Overpopulation was held in September 2011 at the QT Gold Coast and was a huge success. National and international speakers were there to discuss how to get to zero euthanasia in their communities.
We couldn't hold the event without the help of our sponsors so we would like to thank our 2011 Sponsors:
