Blogville Takes Care Of Its Own!

This is an updated post.  See additional information at the bottom.

By now you have all heard of our friend Easy's passing.  As you can imagine, his family is devastated beyond words.  All of Blogville shares in their mourning.  Easy was well known and much loved by so many! Many of us wish there was "something" we could do.  Well there is something you can do.

Easy's insurance did not cover any of the costs to the ER dogtur who provided the service and ultimately operated on Easy.  So we want to take the financial loss part away from his family and reimburse them for his medical care.  It was bad enough to lose their beloved best friend!



 To Donate Money For Easy’s Medical Expenses:

PayPal – The fastest way is PayPal.  Because of the differing currencies we encourage you to use this method.  The money will go into an account (monitored by Idaho Pugs) and then transferred to Easy’s Family.  When you donate the money select the option “Sending Money To A Friend”.  Make sure you select that option! To use PayPal you need your own account (sets up quickly and easily).  Go to PayPal and send the money to pugranch2[AT]msn[DOT]com



We are trying to avoid setting up a GOFUNDME page because they take a larger part of the donation for their fee (5%+) and we want as much money as possible to go towards Easy’s medical expenses.  

There will also be an auction announced soon by Mollie & Alfie One Wing.

Thank you for making "LOVE" a verb!!


UPDATES:
There is an auction happening over at Mollie & Alfie One Wing's place.  Click here to get there.  We thank everyone who has donated so far.  Even small amounts quickly add up to bigger amounts!!  We will post an accounting later today!

What a wonderful thing to do for one of Blogville's own. We can't help financially but we send lots of good wishes for what we know will be a successful fundraiser.

Hari om
...and this is why I refuse to pay ins prems on anything other than property. It stinks, but have yet to hear of any one truly benefitting other than the insurers themselves. Anyway, gripe over. Hoorah for Blogville!!! YAMxx

We will be back here on Monday when mom gets off her 4 day shift, and contribute then. What a great idea. stella rose

Millie and Walter said...

We just made our mom send some money and will definitely be participating in the auction. It's maddening that they had insurance but it isn't covering the bills when it is most needed.

Linda said...

OMD we forgot our paypal password.
My mom made a new one so we are sending $ now.

Nowhere but here could so many hearts come together to help out another. It's one of the BEST things about blogville - the family is so supportive in times of need. We miss Easy more than words can say................
