For The Love of Alex
We fund emergency veterinary care for pets of low-income households.
We strive for a successful outcome for pets and an enhanced quality of life for their human companions. Since 2013, our vital support has helped pet parents avoid surrendering their pets to a shelter or economic euthanasia due to financial hardship.
Pets In Need
For many low-income households, the cost of emergency and life-saving veterinary care for their beloved pets can be an impossible financial burden. For The Love Of Alex (FTLOA) fundraises to provide urgent and emergency veterinary care for cats and dogs whose owners cannot afford it.
We do our due diligence in vetting applicants to protect our donors' interests. Pet owners must provide proof of their financial status through tax returns or other documentation to be approved as a beneficiary. FTLOA pays veterinarians, pharmacies, and pet food distributors directly to ensure the pet receives the necessary veterinary care and prescribed nutrition.
For The Love Of Alex is dedicated to the well-being of the pet and its owner from the start until the animal has received a clean bill of health from its veterinarian. This vital support prevents owners from surrendering their pets to a shelter or economic euthanasia due to financial hardship.
Our mission is truly a labor of love, mending broken hearts and keeping families whole.π
