This grant helped Sheldon. Sheldon was a Hurricane Matthew refugee who was brought to safety to our sanctuary in South Carolina. After several months, we finally found a foster for him in New York. We were excited to find a forever home for Sheldon when we discovered he was in pain due to issues in his mouth. After several days of trying to raise the money needed for his surgery, I found the Emergency Medical Grant and immediately applied. This grant completely funded Sheldon’s surgery and we were finally able to find Sheldon his forever home. Sheldon now has a great home and is no longer in pain thanks to this grant! We cannot thank you enough!
