Cocoa's Fund is our in-house charity and a tribute to the life of Cocoa, a beloved chocolate lab who was a staff favorite at our clinic. His passing in 2020 was a heartbreaking loss, but the legacy that was left behind lives on through this incredible charity.
Cocoa's Fund came about as a result of his wonderful owners. They wanted to honor his memory in a meaningful way and donated money to our clinic in his name. The purpose of the donation was to provide emergency care for pets whose owners couldn't afford it, ensuring that pets wouldn’t have to suffer due to financial hardship.
This charity has been an invaluable resource for both pets and their owners. The fund is used at the discretion of our clinic, allowing us to provide financial assistance to those in need when emergencies arise. Whether it's a sudden illness or injury, we can use Cocoa's Fund to provide life-saving care to pets and peace of mind to their owners. While the fund is not unlimited, we're committed to using it wisely and compassionately. We recognize that every pet and their family is important, and we do our best to help as many animals as we can.
The impact of Cocoa's Fund has been immeasurable. It has allowed us to provide care to pets who might otherwise have had to go without, and it has given hope to owners who were facing difficult decisions about the health and well-being of their furry family members. While we can't guarantee that we'll be able to help everyone, we do our best to provide great care and support for our clients.
Cocoa's Fund is a powerful reminder of the love and compassion that can be found in the veterinary community. It's a tribute to the life of a beloved pet, and a testament to the generosity and kindness of his owners. We are proud to have this incredible in-house charity and to carry on this legacy by providing care and support to pets in need.
Cocoa’s Fund: Year-Round Fundraising with Special Events
Cocoa's Fund is dedicated to supporting animals in need, and we fundraise year-round to make this possible. While we raise funds consistently, our two biggest events are Pictures with Santa for pets and Calendar Sales.
Pictures with Santa
Our annual Pictures with Santa event gives pet owners the chance to capture a special moment with their furry friends. Pets (and their families!) can take festive photos with Santa, and all proceeds help support Cocoa's Fund and its mission to help animals in need.
Calendar Sales
Each year, we sell beautiful calendars featuring our amazing clients pets. These calendars make a wonderful gift and serve as a reminder of the impact your support has on the lives of animals.
We are grateful for the support we receive all year long, and every donation helps us continue our important work. Thank you for helping us make a difference!
