Whilst everyone winds down for Christmas, Sidewalk Specials are gathering the last of our energy (and sanity) to ensure De Doorns’ township animals have a lifeline to veterinary care this December…❤️🩹
Huge thanks to The Hard Family Foundation, The Flemming Family Foundation, The Stretch Foundation, Do It For the dogs, Pet Heaven, The Sports Concept Store, Nexgard, Hill’s Pet Nutrition and our wonderful supporters for making 2025 possible! 🙏🏻
Sidewalk Specials are currently fundraising to purchase a much needed X-ray machine for our clinic, allowing us to treat fractures, breaks and traumas alongside diagnosing conditions such as pneumonia, hip dysplasia, and internal blockages.
X-ray machines aren’t cheap, with a welfare discount we’re looking at R481,592 ($28,752/ AUD$43,522/€24,543/£21,485) but it would be a transformative addition to our clinic!
With an in-house X-ray machine, we anticipate the following outcomes within the first year:
– A 50–70% reduction in funds spent on external veterinary diagnostics.
– A significant increase in successful fracture and trauma treatments, preventing unnecessary euthanasia. – Improved efficiency and turnaround time for diagnosing conditions such as pneumonia, hip dysplasia, and internal injuries.
– The ability to sterilise 200–300 additional animals annually with the funds saved from external costs, preventing thousands of unwanted puppies and kittens being born into poverty and neglect.
The animals of De Doorns are relying on us, please use the below donation options if you are able to help ❤️🩹
Sidewalk Specials are PBO approved and can issue Section 18A tax certificates for all donations received! ✅
A blessed festive season to all our supporters, and an extra shout out to The Humans Narrative for being the voice of the voiceless 💓
Please Support and Share! 🙏🏻
