Title

The Pet Fund

Description

The Pet Fund was founded in 2003 because there was at that time no national nonprofit dedicated to funding veterinary care for those who could not afford it. Animal shelter statistics across the country demonstrated a constant increase in the number of animals dropped off at shelters, many because of treatable medical conditions. Thanks to the generosity of the law firm of O’Melveny & Myers, The Pet Fund incorporated as a 501(c)3 and began raising funds to address this growing problem.

The staff and board members of The Pet Fund work constantly to develop resources for pets and their families to fund critically needed veterinary care, thus keeping animals out of shelters and helping pet owners to become both financially independent and skilled at preventative care practices. Since medical costs for animals (as for people) are also on the rise, this is an ongoing funding challenge. As a registered 501(c)3, all donations to The Pet Fund are tax-deductible, and The Pet Fund strives to use the largest percentage of donations possible for animal veterinary care above our operating costs, which are minimal. Our financial information is available upon request from any interested donors, and we welcome questions about our funding, application process, and development at . (Please remember to put “The Pet Fund” in the subject line of your email.)

President: Erin Havey. Erin Havey is completing her graduate degree in Government from California State University, Sacramento. She works as a legislative analyst for a nonprofit consumer advocacy organization in California and has two cats of her own.
