Tragedy to Triumph: Helping Pets During COVID-19
May 16th, 2020
RedRover supporters are now helping to turn tragedy into triumph for families impacted by COVID-19. When Kim’s Aunt Patricia lost her husband of 46 years to the COVID-19 virus, then needed to be hospitalized herself, she had no one to care for her two fur babies. Kim reached out to us for assistance in finding care for the precious pups, Frederick and Casper. Thanks to supporters like you, we were able to provide 10 days of boarding for Frederick and Casper through our new Emergency Boarding grants – and help ease the family’s pain during such a tragic time. We’re happy to report that the sweet dogs are now back home with their mama while she recovers.
“Thanks very much for the assistance of RedRover. My Aunt’s health is improving daily. I have no doubt that Frederick and Casper contribute directly to her progress. During this time of major disparities, RedRover’s assistance provided comfort to our family. We were able to assure my aunt that her pets would remain safe and healthy during her recovery. On behalf of our family, we thank RedRover and Komplete Kennel. The compassion and collaboration of these two companies turned tragedy into triumph!!”
Kim and her family are now paying it forward by becoming monthly RedRover donors, so they can help others in their time of need. She told us:
“It feels great to pay the blessing forward that RedRover has been to our family. If there is ever a special circumstance or need that arises that RedRover encounters, please let us know how we can assist. We may be able to boost our support to aid with extenuating circumstances. We are committed to helping others in their time of need, through this wonderful charity.“
