Dollars For Ollie.


Little Ollie was adopted on Jan 21st and just this weekend he was rushed to Alta Vista Animal Hospital with Parvo, fighting for his life. There was a little wag of the tail yesterday but Ollie is not in the clear just yet.

No new fur parent should have to deal with these kinds of vet bills so we want to do everything we can to help ease the burden for Ollie's mom. Several people have asked how they can help or donate, so we have set up an Ollie Fund through Canada Helps called Dollars For Ollie. Any amount helps, so if you would like to donate or buck or two (or more!) this will make a tremendous difference.

You can donate by clicking this link: http://www.hopefulhearts.ca/donations.htm

Choose either PayPal or Canada Helps. If you donate through Canada Helps you will receive a tax receipt for any amount over $20.

We will update you with Ollie's progress and let you know what his vet bills are and what has been donated. We will also be planning a fundraiser for Ollie and will provide you with more information shortly.

You are the reason we're able to help these angels and we're forever grateful for any amount you are able to donate. xoxo

January 30th update: We have received an amazing $1866.00 for Ollie's vet bills!! We have been given a quote of $2500-$6000 so this will go a LONG way towards making things easier. After such a hard week with the disappearance of Max and now Ollie getting sick we can't tell you how grateful we are to have your support. You guys are absolutely amazing! Thank you!!

January 31st update: We heard from Ollie's mom and the little man is doing really well and it looks like he will get to go home tomorrow!! As of this morning his vet bill was $1785 plus an extra $375-450 per day that he stays. You're never going to believe this, but Ollie's fund has reached a grand total of $2155.89! WOW!! We are above the moon and can't thank you enough for your generosity! At this time we no longer asking for donations for Ollie's vet care, as Ollie's mom is more than happy to pay any balance remaining.

THANK YOU!!!!!

  3. Easy way for people to give....take your change to the machine at the supermarket that counts it for you. Sell stuff you no longer want on free classified sites. And take your empty bottles in.

    You're richer than you think !
