San Francisco Aid for Animals (SFAfA) was founded in 2011 by four San Francisco veterinarians who were alarmed by the number of pets being euthanized or surrendered due to their owner’s inability to pay for veterinary care. In 2012, after raising money through donations, they began providing grants to San Francisco area veterinarians to help pet guardians pay for their pet’s urgent, treatable medi

cal conditions. SFAfA is fiscally sponsored by the 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization, Inquiring Systems Inc. Donations can be made via our website: www.sfafa.org

Chuka, a 15-week-old Great Dane, faced a life-threatening foreign body obstruction. After 24 hours of fluids with no success, she needed urgent care.

Thanks to the amazing team , who cleared their schedule to see her the same day, Chuka underwent life-saving surgery to remove the blockage.

💙 Your donations to San Francisco Aid for Animals made this possible, and now Chuka is back to her playful puppy self.

Another amazing grant funding story!

Meet sweet Benji, who obtained a humerus fracture. In order to avoid limb amputation, the fracture repair needed to be done as soon as possible by an orthopedic specialiist. A repair in such a small kitten is especially challenging. Benji is very loved and well cared for, but his dad needed some help with the very large unexpected expense to avoid having to amputate. We teamed up with the incredible San Francisco Aid for Animals and between their grant, an AMC match, and dad's contribution, Dr. Polidoro was able to perform a successful fracture repair!

At the end you'll find a cute picture of Benji in hospital along with the pre and post op x-rays.

A final note- there are so many animals we have been able to perform emergency life saving/enhancing treatments on because of SF Aid for Animals. We are so incredibly grateful for them, and if you are ever wanting to donate to a great community organization, this is the one!

Keeping Companion Animals and their Families together.

San Francisco Aid for Animals was founded in 2011 by four San Francisco veterinarians who became alarmed by the number of pets being euthanized or surrendered because many owners could not afford to pay for their pet’s veterinary care.

In response to this need, we began raising money through donations and in 2012 began providing grants to San Francisco area veterinarians to help pet guardians pay for their pet’s urgent, treatable medical conditions.

Since 2012 we have distributed over $175K in funds to pay for over $325K in veterinary bills and helped save over 125 pets who were otherwise facing euthanasia or surrender.

San Francisco Aid for Animals is an all-volunteer organization and is a fiscally sponsored project of Community Initiatives a 501(C) (3) not for profit organization in San Francisco.
