Project Amount: $14,530
Project Period: July 2024 to July 2025

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant):

The Maddie’s Shelter Medicine Program at Cornell University is one of the few veterinary colleges offering a shelter medicine program. With this grant, our program is looking to buy new monitoring equipment to provide on the road services to local shelter animals in our area to help diversify the number of cases our interns and students see on a daily basis. New pulse oximeters, a blood pressure machine, and stethoscopes will make this all a functioning dream.
