Don't miss, A K9 Cause Fundraising Event for the Retired K9 Officers Healthcare Fund!!!!!!!!

VCA Hollywood is proud to share "A K9 Cause Event", created through the partnership of Sheriff's Foundation of Broward County, American Heritage School and VCA Hollywood Animal Hospital to raise money for the healthcare costs of retired K9 officers in Broward County.

Started almost two years ago, the Retired K9 Officer Healthcare Fund RK9OHF, in partnership with VCA Hollywood Animal Hospital has touched the lives of  the K9 officer that protect our South Florida community.

In retirement, canine officers are no longer financially supported by the department they served. Their handlers, or partners, often voluntarily ‘adopt’ these animals to live out their retirement in comfort. It is the belief of the RK9OHF that the cost of healthcare should be supplemented. In accordance with that belief, a partnership was established with the RK9OHF and VCA Hollywood Animal Hospital to provide the best in wellness care to these officers and to cover a portion of those costs. American Heritage School supports this goal.

American Heritage School is hosting a Silent Auction of original works or art, including drawings, paintings, ceramics and photography Saturday April 6, 2019 in the lovely Black Box Theatre on campus. These special works of art will be available this "A K9 Cause Event" 100% of all funds raised from this event will benefit the Sheriff's Foundation of Broward County's Retired K9 Officer Healthcare Fund.

Inspired by a little boy's passion for animals and art, A K9 Cause is meant to raise money to "fund this fund".
