Donate to Ellie's General Fund

Your contribution to the General Fund will support families who work with our veterinary partners as well as a variety of community needs, including cases referred by social service providers and instances where a pet has not had previous access to a veterinarian.

Donate to a Veterinary Partner

You may choose to contribute directly to one of our partner veterinarian practitioners. Funds raised for our partner vets are earmarked for use by each individual practice, and can only be distributed through that practice.

Give a Memorial Gift

This type of gift is made in memory of a pet or other deceased family member, friend, neighbor, colleague, etc., often in lieu of flowers for a funeral service, an anniversary of a passing or other special times of remembrance.

Please provide the name of the pet or person in remembrance, and include the individual's main family contact name and email or street address. We will let them know you have made a donation in memory of their loved one. We share only your name and address - not the donation amount.

Give an Honorary Gift

Or on your own special occasion, you can feel good about helping pets and families right here in the Miami Valley by asking friends to donate to Ellie's Rainy Day Fund in lieu of gifts.

Please include the honoree's contact name and email or street address, and we will notify them that you have made a donation in their honor. We share only your name and address - not the donation amount.
