If it wasn't for every one of you that supports Ellie's Rainy Day Fund, Groot wouldn't be here to keep being our cuddle bug and protector. We will be forever thankful and are humbled by your gift to our family.

Groot, a 1.5 year old German Shepard whose life was just saved by the donors of ERDF said: "It was all my fault. My folks both work at the hospital so they're gone a lot now and I get bored in my crate. So one day I banged against my crate til it hopped over next to a pile of laundry. I could reach my muzzle out just enough to snag a blanket, which I pulled into my crate and ate. I was rather proud of myself, until I started feeling TERRIBLE!"

Groot's Mom said, "We were devastated when the first two surgeries to save Groot's bowel had complications. We were out of funds and have a new baby coming, but how were we going to tell our boys they had to say goodbye to one of their best friends? We went to the vet to say goodbye…

Getting another chance from Ellie’s Rainy Day Fund was a miracle!"

Here's the REST of the story...

Let's Finish 2020 In A Positive Way!

"I'll be forever thankful to the people that give to Ellie's Rainy Day Fund so that folks like me don't end up being alone."

We are excited to offer you the opportunity to partner with us to close out 2020 on a positive note! #GivingTuesday, the worldwide movement that's about OUR generous hearts being there for OUR community is coming up on December 1st. Previously, you have stepped up to make sure that families like Buffy's and others in our community don't suffer the heartbreak of losing their animal companions. We hope you will join us again in keeping families together by saving their pets' lives!

Why does supporting ERDF matter?

While requests through our veterinary partners have doubled this year, donations are down by 25%. Without you, families in the Miami Valley will be forced to euthanize their beloved fur kids because they can't afford the emergency/specialty vet care they need.

Why now?

We need our animal companions now more than ever!

In years past you have made #GivingTuesday a pivotal day for making sure that pets in the Miami Valley will be able to stay with the people who cherish them. We really need your help this year to raise $10,000 and gain 10 new monthly donors. That will provide consultations for about 40 more family pets.

NOW is the time to Double Your Impact!

NOW (Nov. 28) through December 1st, gifts totaling up to $10,000 will be matched by a group of generous donors. So, your $1 = $2! When we reach our goal, $10,000 becomes $20,000! As always, 100% of funds raised will go directly to helping families and their pets.

How can you help?

If everyone gives a little, it will really add up to impact lives.

  • Celebrate the holidays in 2020 by making a gift that impacts our community.
  • Donate in honor of or in memory of someone’s beloved pet. Wrap up a note telling them what you did and watch the love grow.
  • Become a Faithful Friend, making small monthly contributions, which provides ERDF with predicable funding while making it more convenient and affordable for you.
  • Pass on this email to family and friends
  • Share our #GivingTuesday posts on Facebook (especially from November 27-December 1).
