NY SAVE- Save Animals in Veterinary Emergency

NY SAVE- Save Animals in Veterinary Emergency NY SAVE was founded in 1998 as the philanthropic arm of the VMA of NYC. There clearly was a need for a charity to help relieve pets of low-income owners.

In 1998 a group of veterinarians recognized the need for pets with medical emergencies to get the care they need regardless of their owners' ability to pay for that care. With an endorsement and a start-up loan from the Veterinary Medical Association of New York City, NY SAVE, Inc., was founded as a publicly supported philanthropic organization to serve the pets of New York City residents living i

n Manhattan, Brooklyn the Bronx, Queens, and Staten Island. The goal of NY SAVE is for any pet owner residing in one of the five boroughs of New York City who is truly in need of financial assistance to be able to take their pet to any participating veterinary hospital for emergency veterinary care. Pet owners can apply directly to NY SAVE or obtain services through a referral by a veterinarian who is a member of the Veterinary Medical Association of New York City. To qualify, pet owners need to provide identification and some form of documentation indicating that they are currently unemployed, on public assistance, disabled or living at or below the poverty level. There is a $2,000.00 annual limit per household. Pet owners who are able to pay a portion of the veterinary care will be asked to do so on a sliding-scale basis. Veterinarians participating in the program will reduce their fees in order to care for animals accepted for treatment under NY SAVE. The pets treated through NY SAVE will receive the same level of care as any other veterinary patients. After treating the emergency condition, the veterinarian will institute the appropriate therapy for the continued stabilization of your pet.

Testimonial - Jewel and Nora

When Jewel was diagnosed with Pyometra, we were devastated knowing that she would succumb to her illness if we couldn’t find a way to cover her emergency surgery in the next 24-48 hours. Luckily, the amazing staff at Riverdale Vet Group advised us to contact NY SAVE. They answered our call and our prayers and informed us that we were eligible to receive services from NY SAVE. Jewel’s surgery was successfully performed the very next day. She is well on her way to making a full recovery and our family is complete! …A priceless gift that we will be eternally grateful for! We could never thank NY SAVE enough for being there when we needed them the most. We love you NY SAVE!
