    ❤️ Help Me Get a Safe Place to Heal After being hospitalized and undergoing surgery, I’m still recovering and have more specialist appointments and treatment ahead of me. Right now, one of the hardest parts of recovery is not having a safe, stable place to heal. I recently found an older RV that I have the opportunity to purchase for $1,000. It needs some repairs, but it could give me something I desperately need right now — a safe place to recover and begin putting my life back together. I’m creating this fundraiser specifically to help me purchase the RV, get it transferred and registered in my name, move it, and take care of the immediate repairs and expenses needed to make it safe and livable. My goal is $2,000. I’m not looking for anything fancy. I’m just trying to find a realistic way to have a place to heal, keep my animals with me, and regain some stability while I continue my recovery. If you’re able to donate, even a small amount would mean so much to me. And if you can’t donate, sharing this fundraiser could make an enormous difference. ❤️ Thank you to everyone who has supported me through this difficult time.
    A New Goal: A Place to Recover ❤️ I found an older RV that I have the opportunity to purchase for $1,500. It needs some flooring and interior work, but I believe it can be made into a safe, livable space. I’m setting a new goal of $2,500 to help purchase the RV and make the basic repairs needed to make it livable. Having a place to stay would give me some stability while I continue recovering and would allow me to keep my animals with me. I know it’s not perfect, but right now I’m trying to make the most realistic option work and rebuild from where I am. Any amount, even $5 or $10, or simply sharing this fundraiser, would help me get closer. ❤️
    Help Christina Recover and Get Back on Her Feet On August 27, I was seriously injured and ended up in the emergency room and hospitalized with significant injuries to both of my hands and my leg. I have 13+ stitches across both hands, including deep injuries to my fingers, and I am currently receiving follow-up treatment because of the pain and difficulty using my hands. My leg also required surgery, and I am currently unable to walk normally without a boot and walker. My doctor expects I will need the walker for at least a month, possibly longer, and I may face a long recovery with lasting nerve damage. While I was hospitalized, I also had puppies depending on me. I had to temporarily leave the hospital to make sure they were safe and worked extremely hard to find them a safe placement. I arranged three separate appointments with Pasadena Humane so all of the puppies could safely be taken into their care. They are now safe and available for adoption through Pasadena Humane. Once I knew the puppies were safe, I returned to the hospital and was readmitted for surgery and overnight medical care. Right now, I am unable to work and facing continued medical treatment and basic living expenses while I recover. Friends are also helping care for my personal pets while I am unable to care for them myself. Before this happened, I was working hard to build a future around something I deeply care about. I recently received my EIN for ACT Animal Rescue Foundation and was working on the 501(c)(3) process, with hopes of eventually expanding my rescue work and helping more animals. I have spent so much of my life taking care of animals and fighting for those who need someone to advocate for them. Even while I was seriously injured, I made sure the puppies were safe. Now, I need help taking care of myself. Funds raised will help with: • Medical bills, surgery, and follow-up treatment • Medications and medical supplies • Transportation to medical appointments • Rent and basic living expenses while I am unable to work • Food and necessities during recovery • Care for my personal pets while I recover My goal is to heal, get back on my feet, return to work, secure stable housing, and continue building ACT Animal Rescue Foundation. If you are able to donate, thank you. If you cannot, sharing this fundraiser can make an enormous difference. Thank you to everyone who has reached out, checked on me, offered food, offered help, or simply kept me in your thoughts. I haven’t been able to respond to everyone, but please know that I see the love and support. ❤️
    EMERGENCY: Please Help Save Iubire ❤️ My dog Iubire is currently at the emergency veterinarian right now fighting through a serious injury. She needs immediate medical care, and we are facing an estimated $6,000 emergency veterinary bill. The ER team has already started treating her, including cleaning her wounds and providing stitches. She still needs further diagnostics, including X-rays, to determine the full extent of her injuries and what treatment she will need moving forward. Iubire is more than just a pet — she is my family. I am doing everything I can to make sure she gets the care she needs, but this unexpected emergency is beyond what I can manage alone. Over the past few months, I have been caring for Mama, a rescue dog who gave birth to puppies and needed help. I stepped up to save her and her babies, and now I’m asking for help for my own girl during this emergency. Any donation, no matter how small, will go directly toward Iubire’s emergency veterinary care. If you can’t donate, sharing this fundraiser would mean just as much and could help us reach someone who can. Please keep Iubire in your thoughts and prayers. We are fighting for her. ❤️ Thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping my girl.

    Help Mama Pitbull & Her 9 Puppies Get Their First Vet Care Recently I rescued a pregnant pitbull I found at a recycling center who gave birth to 9 beautiful puppies. They are safe now, but they urgently need their first round of veterinary care to stay healthy. The vet has agreed to help us with low-cost services, but with Mama plus 9 puppies, the vaccines and care still add up. Their care plan includes: • Deworming (first two visits – donated by the vet) • DHPP vaccines to protect against parvo and distemper • Bordetella vaccines • Rabies vaccines when the puppies are old enough The total cost for all 10 dogs is about $1,500. Every dollar will go directly toward: Vaccines Deworming Basic veterinary care to keep them healthy until adoption or foster placement. If you can donate, share, or help in any way, it means the world to these babies and to the rescue animals we’re trying to protect. Thank you for supporting these little lives. ❤️ ACT Animal Rescue Foundation
    My name is Christina, and I founded ACT Animal Rescue Foundation with the goal of helping animals that have nowhere else to go. Over time, our rescue efforts have grown quickly. We have taken in abandoned dogs, stray animals, and emergency rescues that needed immediate care. Recently, we also rescued a pregnant pit bull who safely gave birth to a litter of puppies that will soon need foster and forever homes. Because the number of animals needing help continues to grow, we are working toward securing a dedicated property where ACT Animal Rescue Foundation can safely operate and properly care for rescued animals. Having a dedicated rescue space will allow us to provide: • Safe temporary housing for rescue animals • Proper recovery areas for injured or vulnerable animals • Space to coordinate foster placements and adoptions • Storage for food, supplies, and rescue equipment Funds raised will go toward securing a suitable property, building safe animal areas, and covering essential veterinary care and rescue supplies. ACT Animal Rescue Foundation is currently in the nonprofit formation process with the State of California, and our goal is to build a transparent, responsible rescue that can serve animals in need for years to come. Every contribution helps us move closer to opening a proper rescue facility and saving more animals. Thank you for supporting the animals and helping us build a safe place for them.
