Victims of Hurricane Sandy Still Need Our Help |
Since Sandy made landfall, ASPCA responders have been working around the clock to rescue animals from the floodwaters and reunite them with their guardians. We’ve delivered critical pet supplies and provided emergency veterinary care in some of the hardest-hit areas. And we couldn’t have done it without you. |
As temperatures inch closer to freezing in the Northeast, many families without power or running water in damaged homes are facing increasingly dire circumstances. Everywhere our pet supply vehicles stop, we are met by a crowd of needy pet parents, and the demand for pet food is increasing by the day. |
Despite all these families have lost, they’re doing all they can to care for and feed their pets. To date, we’ve distributed thousands of pounds of pet food and cat litter to areas of extreme need, and we are fielding requests for more every single day. We’ve assisted more than 6,000 animals so far, and thanks to your unwavering support, we’ll be able to help countless others. |
Please don’t forget about those animals that are still waiting for our help. Every penny of your donation will go directly to our disaster relief fund. Thank you for your support of the ASPCA and for allowing us to help where we’re needed most. |

Many U.S. veterans are struggling with invisible wounds such as post-traumatic stress disorder, anxiety and depression. But some of them are finding peace at home thanks to their canine companions.
Operation Freedom Paws, a nonprofit in Gilroy, California, that helps veterans train their own service dogs. It is run by Mary Cortani, a veteran and one of the top 10 CNN Heroes of 2012.
Veterans in Focus: Celebrating, honoring veterans
When veterans train “their own service dog, there are immediate benefits right off the bat,” Cortani said. “They have a mission and a purpose again. It gives them something to focus on and to complete. It gives them a sense of security and safety. … They know they’re not alone. They’ve always got their buddy at the end of the leash.”
