Featured Love Stories
Since Kahlua and her human are homeless, this sweet pup has never seen a vet. ERDF enabled the removal of several large mammary tumors, healing of systemic infection and reversal of severe anemia so that they could continue to share their love.
“I’m so glad we could work together. Kahlua and Hairball mean everything to each other. Homeless people are just like everyone else. Their animals are really family for them. Without the help of Ellie’s Rainy Day Fund he would have lost her.”
ERDF paid for the diagnostics following surgery after Romeo’s leg was broken in a recliner accident, thus saving his leg from amputation and giving him a chance to regain full mobility.
“Thank you so much for all your help and mostly for what you do. If not for you, we would be dealing with a huge loss instead of lots of joy. Thank you, Ellie’s Rainy Day Fund. We are forever grateful.”
Ellie’s Rainy Day Fund helped fix Mabel’s heart so she could continue to share her love.
“Mabel wouldn’t be with us today if it weren’t for Ellie’s Rainy Day Fund. Mom wouldn’t have understood where her buddy had gone, and it would’ve been such an emotional void for us both without her. Thank you for helping our family to remain whole.”
ERDF funded Roller’s life-saving surgery to help him help the boy who needed him most.
“The Fund, and those who contribute to it, are all superheros. They swoop in and catch you when you’re falling. And just like that, you regain focus in your whole life and all that you have to be grateful for. They don’t just save a pet, they saved your family member, they saved your faith in humanity.”
Ellie’s Rainy Day Fund partnered with the hospital to pay the bills and give Starbucks a chance.
“When the vet told us that Ellie’s Rainy Day Fund had agreed to help Starbucks, we wept. We’d exhausted basically everything we had, and we were both so scared we were going to have to let him go because of the cost. I don’t know how to sufficiently express the gratitude we have. I’m still in a state of stunned disbelief.”
