PRO RESOURCES
PROVIDES THE
SOLUTION!
HR compliance, payroll, benefits, safety; if you're a business owner, Executive Director or a C-level executive, you simply don't have time for all of it.
Or at least it makes doing the real work - strategic planning, operations, managing people, fundraising, recruiting - much more difficult. That's why after seven years with the Red River Zoo, Sally Jacobson
finally made a move to change things last year. That's why she now works with PRO Resources, an outsourced HR solution that offers expertise in Human Resources, Payroll, Benefits Administration, Workers' Compensation, Safety Compliance, Employee Assistance Programs, Wellness and so much more. PRO has all the tools, and a team of professionals to make managing your people easy.

It was a lot on me. I was responsible for all the HR, time management, payroll, safety and everything related to employment." said Jacobson. "It was a lot of extra work that I had to fit into my day. I used to think that being the CEO of a small organization just came with those responsibilities. Being able to use PRO has really helped save me a lot of time so I can focus on what I need to do and my area of expertise, business profitability and growth."
That "job" that Jacobson is now more free to do, is an important one. Not only is the Red River Zoo a place of employment for over two dozen of our citizens, but it is also a pillar of the community and a beacon of hope for a number of endangered species.
"Our zoo is really a space of community," said Jacobson. "When people are considering moving to the area, they'll look around and really
try to see what the community is all about and what it has to offer. The zoo is a huge part of the community with all of our events, hosting of birthday parties and just being a place for people to come to see the animals and enjoy the scenery."
Conservation Work At The Red River Zoo
The Zoo is a protected haven where breeding and caring for threatened animals can help protect them from extinction. The Red River Zoo is known around the world for its work with Chinese Red Pandas, Sichuan Takin, and Pallas Cats, all of which are endangered species. "We are dedicated to helping the animals that we can," said Jacobson.
