Help Pasadena Humane Help Animals

Hello! I’m Heather Ivins from Stuart, Florida. I’m raising money for Pasadena Humane to help them care for the animals being brought in with injuries from the devastating LA fires. The photos I’ve seen are heartbreaking, including the one above, which is of a white dog covered in ash with severe burns and ulcers in her eyes from fire exposure.

Please help by donating to this organization that is taking such good care of these poor animals!

I am not affiliated with Pasadena Humane—I’m just an artist and animal lover watching all of this unfold from across the country and I want to use my artwork to help the animals.

As an incentive to donate, I’m giving away one custom 8"x10" colored pencil pet portrait on Instagram! (If you don’t have a pet, I will draw an animal of your choice, should you win.) All US residents who donate at least $10 to my fundraiser are eligible to enter. (Save your receipt!) Please visit my Instagram account for details: instagram.com/heatherivins

Thank you for helping!

From Pasadena Humane:

Pasadena Humane has taken in over 400 animals from the Eaton Fire Emergency. We are desperately in need of monetary donations to help us purchase medical supplies and other resources as we start to see a significant increase in the number of burned and injured animals coming to our shelter.

These animals are suffering from smoke inhalation, singed paws, burns, dehydration, and more. We have been treating each animal based on their needs, providing fluids, oxygen, pain medications and wound care as quickly as we can.

The best way to help the animals and families who are in need is to donate. This will give us the flexibility to cover critical expenses like medical care, facility maintenance, and support for lifesaving programs that ensure every animal has the best chance at a happy ending.

This is a human and animal tragedy on an unimaginable scale and we are only beginning to learn of the full impact.

As the Eaton Fire emergency continues, we anticipate that we will need to take in many more animals who are in need of emergency medical care.
