The Sky Foundation hosts 400 animals while
also offering refuge, food and veterinary treatment to vulnerable
homeless still on the streets
HOLDEN,
Mass., July 2, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The Pet
Memorial, an international monument to pets who have crossed the
"rainbow bridge," announced today that $13,000 worth of food will be delivered to the
Sky Foundation in Romania.
The donation will provide 14 tons of dog kibble, canned cat food
and hay to the rescue, which permanently houses about 400 animals,
dogs, cats, horses and donkeys.
"The Sky Foundation is not only a loving home for hundreds of
rescued animals, but also spreads their wings over the surrounding
villages," The Pet Memorial founder Laura
Simpson said. "Last winter, we worked together to deliver
meals to dogs who are deeply malnourished and living on
chains."
For 13 years, the Sky Foundation has offered refuge, food and
veterinary treatment to animals living on the streets as well as
adoption services for animals able to find homes.
"The situation has been extremely difficult lately; I have
considered just giving up because I felt like I couldn't handle it
anymore," Sky Foundation founder Mariana
Craciun said. "The aid that comes from volunteers and
organizations like The Pet Memorial is invaluable to us. The
financial support and love they send our way gives us a sense of
hope and determination to keep fighting for these animals."
Donations to The Pet Memorial are made to commemorate pets who
have "crossed the rainbow bridge." The project is designed to help
pet guardians cope with loss and honor the legacy of their pets
through international animal rescue projects. The website also
features a pet loss resource center to help those left behind find
a way to deal with their grief.
"The Pet Memorial shines a light straight down from heaven and
onto animals who need help," Simpson said. "That light harnesses
all memories we have with our departed pets, and transforms that
energy into substantial, tangible rescue missions across the
planet."
The Pet Memorial is a project of the Harmony Fund, a U.S.-based
charity organization that offers funding to a network of animal
rescuers internationally, which marks
15 years of life-saving donations and more than $10 million in aid to animal organizations around
the world.
"There is a gap in opportunities for the 'underdogs' in the
world of animal rescue," Simpson said. "There are so many volunteer
teams who don't have resources or visibility to get funding.
They're so often overlooked, despite the wonderful work they're
doing. Harmony Fund and The Pet Memorial were created to help these
organizations keep their doors open and the lights on."
