Hope's Chest Inc.

Hope’s Chest Inc. Hope’s Chest was created soon after Hope Animal Hospital opened in July 2009. It was heaven sent. Hope’s Chest, Inc.

is a non-profit organization in Cleveland County, N.C., that provides a range of critically important veterinary and related services for animals referred by Cleveland County Animal Control. Our wonderful clients began our efforts by donating their pet’s medications to Dr. Lawrence to “pay it forward.” Their generosity to help other animals after losing their own pet was astonishing. Dr. Lawrence

began helping animals at our local humane society shelter (Cleveland County Humane Society), hurt or injured animals at Cleveland County Animal Control’s shelter, and several animals that came into her hospital that had no one to take care of them. Since 2009, Dr. Lawrence has been able to collect and use medications and donated bedding and supplies to help animals in need. And it has been an amazing success…over 1000 animals have received veterinary care!! became a 501c3 non-profit organization in 2015. This is our mission: "Hope’s Chest Inc. These services include surgery and other medical care, fostering and adoption, educational programs and community outreach." We are all VERY excited that God has given us this opportunity to give to those animals that need our help. Dr. Lawrence came up our tag line…“Pawsitively Paying It Forward” …this sums up Hope’s Chest!!

Have you ever wondered about the community cats in your neighborhood? 🐾 These unowned cats, living either feral or friendly, often form families outdoors. They can lead happy, healthy lives with the right support.

Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) is a game-changer for these cats. This humane method helps manage their populations by trapping, neutering or spaying, and then returning them to their environment.

TNR not only improves their health and quality of life but also promotes harmony within our communities. Together, we can make a difference for these resilient felines! 🐱💚

Our Story

Hope’s Chest medical fund was created soon after Hope Animal Hospital opened in July 2009. Our wonderful clients began our efforts by donating their pet’s medications to Dr. Moseley Lawrence to “pay it forward.” Their generosity to help other animals after losing their own pet was astonishing. It was heaven sent.

Dr. Moseley Lawrence began helping animals at our local humane society shelter (Cleveland County Humane Society), hurt or injured animals at Cleveland County Animal Control’s shelter, and several animals that came into her hospital that had no one to take care of them. Over the last 7 years, Dr. Moseley Lawrence has been able to collect and use medications and donated bedding and supplies to help animals in need. And it has been an amazing 10 years… over 1000 animals have received veterinary care!!

In October 2013, Hope’s Chest Inc became a 501(c)3 non-profit organization. Because of its continued growth and support, the medical fund now focuses more on the hurt and injured strays/abandoned animals referred by the Cleveland County Animal Control. Hope’s Chest is a very unique organization. We are focused on providing medical and surgical care for our county’s shelter animals that need more specialized care. But we also want to help educate our community. Our mission statement better defines who we are and what we do:

“Hope’s Chest Inc. is a non-profit organization in Cleveland County, N.C., that provides a range of critically important veterinary and related services for animals referred by Cleveland County Animal Control. These services include surgery and other medical care, fostering and adoption, educational programs and community outreach.”
