The Roanoke Valley SPCA has received a $10,000 grant from the Louise R. Lester Foundation for two programs.
The grant will be used for the Sara Jane and Mickey Second Chance Fund and the Companion Animal Relief Fund.
âThis gift will help us to provide medical and behavioral care for both owned pets and shelter pets,â said Denise Hayes, chief executive officer of the Roanoke Valley SPCA. âWe are so grateful for the continued support of the Louise R. Lester Foundation in our efforts to keep pets and people together.â
The C.A.Re Fund helps economically challenged pet owners struggling with extraordinary veterinary expenses to keep their pets healthy and at home with them.
