About The Program
The Angel Care Fund is an LHVC program that is devoted to addressing the growing number of animals left suffering and homeless, in part due to treatable medical conditions that are unaffordable to owners. In many cases, owners do not have the funding to provide the necessary care, thus the animals are often left untreated/suffering or turned over to local animal shelters often resulting in euthanasia.
LHVC is dedicated to providing financial assistance to pet owners in need of medical procedures that are life-saving or provide significant enhancement to quality of life. It is our hope that, by lessening the financial burden, these families are able to keep their beloved pets alive and healthy while also aiding in lowering intake numbers to local rescues and animal shelters.
We rely on the support of people who believe in our mission and appreciate every donation we receive. It’s because of our supporters that we can help save and improve lives.

LHVC provides financial assistance to owners whose pets have treatable medical conditions that they are unable to afford the veterinary bill to complete the care needed to save or drastically improve their quality of life. In many cases, these pets may be turned over to local animal shelters or rescues and considered for euthanasia due to the financial burden. We seek to lessen this burden for families, shelters and rescues by providing financial assistance for the necessary treatment, allowing these pets to end their suffering and stay with their families.
Please review the following medical equirements for funding prior to submitting an application:
- Fundable conditions include, but are not limited to: amputations, obstructions, dermatologic conditions, eye surgery, heartworm treatment, pyometra, emergency c-section with spay and mass removal.
- Routine veterinary care, including spay and neuter surgeries, are excluded.
- There are no restrictions based on age or breed, but consideration will be given to additional underlying conditions and the expectation of improvement of quality of life after the proposed treatment or procedure.
- We reserve the right to decline financial assistance or to determine partial or complete funding of the proposed treatment.
Upon receiving an email or message from LHVC, our team will review the request. You will be contacted to review approval or denial of funding for your pet’s care. Most denials will be based on lack of funding, as we will not be able to grant all requests. LHVC does not discriminate on the basis of age, sex or race. Every effort is made to use funds in the most responsible way.
