Hi everyone,

My name is Kenneth Duran, and I've been working at Southwest Animal Care Complex for almost three years. I'm incredibly excited to share that I've been accepted into Texas Tech University School of Veterinary Medicine.

Between tuition, books, equipment, housing, and basic living expenses, the cost of my first semester adds up quickly. I'm working hard, applying for scholarships, and doing everything I can to cover expenses, but I could really use some help getting started.

I'm raising funds to help cover the costs of my first semester so I can focus on my studies and training without the constant stress of finances. Every donation, no matter the size, goes directly toward tuition and school-related expenses. If you're unable to donate, sharing this page also means the world to me.

Thank you so much for supporting me, believing in me, and being part of this journey. I can't wait to one day give back to my community and care for animals with the compassion and dedication this profession deserves.

Thanks for everything,

Kenneth Duran Ruiz
