Help to Heal Program

Nelson SPCA

Providing Critical Care for Animals in Need

We’re dedicated to providing the best possible care for all animals that come through our doors. Unfortunately, many of these animals require medical attention that goes beyond our normal budget capacity. The Help to Heal Program was established to support the growing number of animals in need of advanced medical care. Your generous donations allow us to provide life-saving treatments, medications, and surgeries for animals with treatable health issues. Together, we can make sure these animals receive the care they need.

Why We Need Your Help

We’re seeing more and more animals coming to us needing advanced medical care. Each month, we spend between $5,000 and $8,000 on medications, vaccines, and treatments. These costs often go beyond our usual budget, making it hard to provide the care every animal needs.

That’s where you come in. Your support is vital to help us continue offering life-saving surgeries, treatments, and medications to these vulnerable animals. By contributing to the Help to Heal Program, you’re helping us bridge the gap and give these animals the healthy, happy futures they deserve.

Our Trusted Veterinary Partners

We rely on our local veterinary services and clinics for crucial surgeries, treatments, and medications that help our animals heal and thrive. Their expertise and generosity are essential to the success of the Help to Heal Program, ensuring every animal receives top-notch care. We are deeply grateful to our veterinary partners for their ongoing support and dedication.
