Ian Somerhalder Foundation and Gofundme.com
In May 2016, Project Hope received 6 heart worm positive dogs. The estimated treatment cost totaled $2,000. We were uncertain how to meet these expenses as we were already struggling financially, but the shelter was determined to raise the funds. We applied for and received the Ian Somerhalder Foundation Emergency Medical Grants for the amount of $500. We would like to thank the foundation for their support in our time of significant need. To learn more about the Ian Somerhalder Foundation visit www.isfoundation.com.
In addition to the Ian Somerhalder Foundation Grant, Project Hope received $1,505 from gofundme.com, courtesy of our loyal supporters. We thank you all for your support!
