Please Donate to help pay for Cooper’s Emergency Surgery!
I wanted to share a story about one of the nicest and hardest working window cleaners in NYC (Richie Zittel). Last week, my conversation with Richie started out like any other when we say "how are you doing" or "how have you been". Richie shared a story with me about his 4-year-old Dog and best friend "Cooper" who grabbed a corn on the cob off of the counter which unfortunately already had "skewers" in the ends. A surprise afternoon BBQ at home on a beautiful day turning into a test against time. Cooper (as any dog might do) enjoyed the sweet corn on the cob, and not understanding that this would result in some terrible consequences. Cooper would require emergency surgery and Richie and his family would need to find a vet that would be able to perform this surgery right away to save Cooper's life. This surgery for Cooper would also come with a hefty price tag and Richie did not hesitate to tap his retirement account to do whatever it took to save his best friend.
This selfless act shows me that there are still people out there willing to sacrifice in any way for their pets or others.
Because of this, I am starting this go-fund-me page to help Richie and his family with this unexpected financial burden.
I am setting the Goal at 10K which is what Richie mentioned to me was the cost of the surgery. PLEASE DONATE! Any donation is greatly appreciated!
