<div>Our 10-month-old Great Dane puppy, <strong>Sofia</strong>, has been hospitalized since Saturday evening. She’s been in the ICU, and it was determined that she will need surgery to remove an obstruction from her intestines. They were hoping it would pass, but it did not. <strong>The vet bills are astronomical, and we’ve already paid thousands of dollars so far.</strong> Unfortunately, we did not have pet insurance for her because we had it for our previous Great Danes and never ended up using it. We’ve never been in this situation or had to pay this amount of money for vet bills. <strong>Anything helps! Thank you so much!❤️</strong>

Sofia in ICU: Support Her Urgent Surgery

<div>Our friend, Karl Heinrichs (aka Sir Death) lost his 21 year old daughter over the Christmas holidays. This was a devastating event to all of us who have known Justice since she was a little girl. The family is inconsolable at her passing. We have been moved to help the family out with expenses for the funeral and memorial service(s) to be held in her name. Justice, after being present for the passing of her uncle, specifically said that she did not want the elaborate funeral her uncle had. So the family has decided to plan accordingly and keep the expenses down as much as is possible. There will be nowhere to send flowers, etc as a result of Justice's and the families wishes. That said, these expenses are immediate. If you can afford to help please do.

<div>Update 02/05/24:  time to get an attorney.  Foreclosure sale was on 11/30/23. From what we found online, property was so for almost $100k. Just now finding out, that sketchy stuff involved. Bank president, Jason Goehring, of American national fired…or relocated to Grand Rapids MN, foreclosure sale REVERSED and remaining $9,000 forgiven….what bank does that?  
</div>

</div>
<div>UPDATE 11/31/23: today was the foreclosure auction. I don’t know what it sold for or what happens next. Unfortunately, my sister &amp; I live hours away. I know we did not raise near enough to pay off the balance before today. I’m extremely grateful for those who’ve donated and/or shared the link. I’m hoping people can still continue with donations and sharing because we will at some point have to move mom &amp; hopefully find a place she can afford. Donations will help with getting her set up. We could never do this without people like you. Thank you. Truly.

<div>Her laugh is worth everything. The simplest things will throw her into infectious laughter!

<div>I’m Marita. This is about my mom. My dad was in the military, married &amp; brought my mom to the states in 1966. They were both young 22 and 24 and were divorced by 1967 after I was born. My mom raised me alone without welfare working two jobs. She wanted the American dream. She went through three horrible marriages and ended up with three kids. To sum things up in a Cliff note’s version, in the mid-2000s, she had a stroke, a year or two later, her house burned down and within a couple years of that, her 3rd husband died. The house that burned down was uninsurable and her husband left her $6000 life insurance. My sister &amp; brother in law bought an old mobile home for her to live in. Because of the fire, she refused gas heat. Due to electrical heat, her winter electrical bill ranges from $500-$800 a month. She will be 82 this year, has elderly health issues and lives on Social Security.she owes less than $11,000 on her property which is in foreclosure. Goes to sale at the end of November. She will be homeless. She wants to stay on her property because she’s loves it there &amp; all her pets from the last 25-years are buried there. I’m reaching out as a last resort.

Update: Elderly Filipino mom in foreclosure

<div>Hi there. Many know me in the Beagle Rescue Community. I take in Beagles that require special care due to health and medical needs. Beagles that many people shy away from due to age or needs.
</div>
<div>Brownie was rescued originally from the Amish community as a breeding dog where in many other
</div>
<div>cases their care is not kept up.
</div>
<div>This week Brownie became very ill. At first showing signs of pancreatitis, now we’re looking at an unfortunate chance it could be a form of Carcinoma. There remains a chance that this is an extremely bad urinary infection that affected the prostate and urinary tract. As you can see he spent 3 days in the ER vet.
</div>
<div>Brownie is the sweetest boy you will ever meet. I can promise every cent you donate is worth it. He’s such an amazing Boy.
</div>
<div>Brownie will require additional follow ups so if by chance funds exceed the requested amount they will be used toward his follow ups at VCA VES Madison Wi on Broadway.
</div>
<div>To give some background, I have 2 dogs with Epilepsy, 2 that were surrendered due to Separation anxiety and are medicated, 1 that had a hernia and cancer, another that was a hoarding rescue from MS that suffered horrendous Mange, another with Cushings. 2 with major heart problems.
</div>
<div>Brownie needs your support. And anything beyond will support Brownies followup and if you want to help donate towards the others you are welcome too. I fight tirelessly to save and help these dogs and it’s with your help, I can do this.
</div>
<div>PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE Help Brownie (and his 9 brothers and sisters if you want)
</div>
<div>Donations to VCA VES directly can be made, I also have a CashApp &amp; PayPal. I also welcome food and supplies also, including Pill Pockets, disposable pee pads and Food
</div>
<div>Thank YOU!!!!!

On July 10th, 2019, Levi Burd was called to his heavenly home. <br /><br />Levi was born on December 12, 1984 in Crookston, MN. He was raised in both Nebraska and Minnesota, but most of his childhood was spent on the farm near Shelly, MN where his love of farming began. Levi attended Climax and Norman County West Elementary and graduated in 2003 from Norman County West High School. He pursued his passion for mechanics at Wyoming Technical in Laramie WY, and after graduation he moved to Fargo to begin his career. After starting with A-1 Automotive, he moved to RDO, first in Lisbon and then in Kindred, to work on the farm equipment he loved. <br /><br />In 2008, he married the love of his life on September 13th. This union was blessed with 3 children who were the joy and center of his life. <br /><br />Levi built his love for farming into his very own business and worked very hard to provide for the future of his family. With that, he still found time to enjoy ice fishing, hunting, baseball, and anything outdoors. Most of all, he loved spending time with family and friends. <br /><br />Levi was a friend to everyone he met and loved by all who knew him. <br /><br />Funds raised will help relieve some of the financial needs of Levi's wife and 3 children during this difficult time.

As all of you probably know by now, our dear VWO sister and brother, Lori and Grant Sparks, have suffered a family tragedy: Lori's dear son, Josh, died suddenly yesterday. Lori and Grant are on their way/already in Indiana. We all know that funerals are NOT cheap. And Josh, being a young person probably did not have extra $$ for such an expense, as as well as having a young daughter who is now without his love and support. Knowing the kind of "family" we have here in the VWO, we have set up a Go Fund Me page to help cover the funeral costs and any other expenses the family might need help with. Lori and Grant are also missing work and having to travel, etc. So, any $$ we donate over and above the funeral costs, we would like Lori to decide what to do with them (a trust for her granddaughter or help them with expenses of the funeral, also). Thanks for your anticipated kindness for one of our family

Connor and I are at risk of being evicted. I lost my job on 12/28/17 and have sunk into depression. My landlord filed eviction papers this morning. I don't know where to go or what to do. I have gone to the county, but there is no guarantee they will help. To top it off, my u unemployment benefits were held this week. <br /><br />I need to take care of Connor, who has ADHD, autism and anxiety. Along with myself. Meds alone cost over $300 per month. Not to mention food for a 12 year old boy. <br /><br />I don't qualify for food stamps, or cash assistance through the county. My unemployment and child support are just above the cut off. I have to pay for health insurance too, because I make too much.<br /><br />I need help. Please any help would be appreciated. I am interviewing for new jobs, but even if I got one today, I wouldn't be paid for a week or two at the earliest.<br /><br />Thank you!<br /><br />Kathy and Connor

Hi folks!<br /><br />Our good friend Daniel has made it over 4000 miles across the country on bicycle while raising money for a great cause. After making it to New York, he left for his next adventure in Switzerland, and unfortunately was robbed in a train station en route. <br /><br />Daniel has been an inspiration to many, and we want to thank you for any and all the support you have given towards his trip so far to support Dorothy's kitchen. We want to give Daniel the funds he needs after giving so much of himself to others, and help him recover what has been lost. <br /><br />The stolen goods which he estimated to be worth $1400 include:<br />~his laptop computer<br />~his gopro<br />~his external harddrive containing all of his footage from the trip (unquestionably the part he's most bummed about, and the only object that we can't replace)<br />~his pannier bags which he will use to ride home from Oregon<br /><br />Any amount helps, and we really appreciate your continued support!<br /><div><br />(Note: we want to surprise Daniel with this donation, which is why we haven't shared this on our main page. Please message Luke Young if you have any questions as to keep this as private as possible.) <br /><br />Thanks team!</div>
