| Reality Check
Emergency Fund
Immediate funding is
reserved for those cases in which the
animal is facing death or euthanasia, if immediate
care is not provided. Often times we
don't have funds available, even in those
situations.
If your pet is not
facing immediate
death or euthanasia, our only option is to
put a page up on our site and allow you to
use our Community Forum as part of your
fund raising efforts.
For those cases in which
immediate care is not necessary,
any pledge amount from LifeSaver Fund will be
determined after the pet has been on our
site and the applicant has shown they are
doing their part to help in fund raising.
Depending on the number
of pet's on our site, there may be a
waiting period before we can put a page up
for your pet and begin fund raising.
As much as we would like
to help every animal who needs us, the
reality is that we simply do not have the
funds.
Hip dysplasia, cruciate ligament
repair and cancer treatments
It should be further
noted that we get a large number of
requests for help with orthopedic
surgeries and cancer treatment.
While we fully realize how painful and
serious these can be, we have no funding
available for these surgeries or
treatments. All we can do is put
your pet on our site and give you an
opportunity to fund raise for up to 30
days. If treatment is completed
before the 30 days has ended your case
will be closed at that time. Please
continue and complete the application for
the General Emergency Fund when you reach
that point.
We do not want to
give any false hope and lead you to
believe there will be enough in donations
to your pet to cover these very expensive
surgeries and treatments. Rarely, if
ever, does enough funding become
available. LifeSaver Fund highly recommends
that you also contact other
sources for help and do a lot of fund
raising on your own.
With your help and
cooperation we will always do whatever we
can to help.
If you feel you qualify and understand
the reality of what we can and cannot
do...
The next step is to
determine which application to complete.
