One important part of the BooTiki Fund mission is providing veterinary assistance to pets in under-served communities. In all BooTiki Fund events, medical staff volunteer their time and services along with community volunteers to make the world a better place for animals and the people who love them.
Locally, we work with community partners in animal rescue and faith-based organizations to bring wellness clinics and spay & neuter clinics to neighborhoods in Camden, New Jersey, and North and West Philadelphia. In these one-day clinical events, local veterinarians , technicians, and veterinary practice staff join community volunteers to bring services to people and pets in need. Lines often start forming as soon as the tents are being set up and we're often staying later than the end of the announced clinic times to make sure everyone who comes can be served through the "Near" funds.
The fund also supports international clinics in the Caribbean and surrounding areas where overpopulation of pets is both an issue of animal welfare and human health. In these trips, volunteer groups of veterinary medical staff travel to areas of need and work with international and local organizations to conduct large scale spay & neuter clinics. The BooTiki Fund provides some of the medical supplies that aren't provided by other non-profit organizations.
