Mission Statement
Why give? To save lives. Frankie's Friends charitable pet foundation is dedicated to finding cures and saving pets with cancer and other catastrophic diseases. We assist the neediest families with grants for life-saving critical and specialty care for pets. We promote better treatment of pet cancers and other diseases, better access to veterinary care for pets and better support for the families who love them.
About This Cause
Many charitable organizations exist to provide care for strays, abused pets, and relinquished or abandoned pets, but there are few alternatives for pets belonging to loving and responsible families who simply are unable to pay for an unexpected pet illness. The Veterinary Cancer Foundation was started by Dr. Neil Shaw in 1999 (co-founder of Blue Pearl Veterinary Partners) with a mission to save pets with cancer. But the reach and mission of the foundation was broader: to raise money and help pets who would otherwise suffer without proper care or be euthanized due to their families’ lack of financial resources. In 2008, our foundation’s name was changed to Frankie’s Friends to honor the spirit and vitality of Frankie, a beautiful greyhound, cherished by the Edward DeBartolo Jr. family of Tampa, Florida. Frankie’s Friends is a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation (federal EIN 59-3581823).
