Applying for Assistance

Our Save-A-Life program is a partnership between FACE and over 200 veterinary hospitals between San Diego and Oahu to save family pets at risk of “economic euthanasia.” Tragically, many pets with treatable conditions are euthanized simply because their owners cannot afford the necessary care.
