tl;dr: im fine, school is a lot, and something awesome is happening and if you would donate here that would mean the world to me
Hi everyone! It’s been awhile since… I’ve posted anything substantial. I’ve been really really busy with school, like more busy than i ever imagined. I just finished my spring semester, and I passed, yay!!!! I am SO TIRED, HAHA. Any veterinary school is not for the weak, us vet nurses (technicians is the technical term here) also get that. But, I’m very proud of myself. I’m taking a few days to just… catch up on sleep (GOD.) and with friends before I start making things and getting back to my commission queue. I left this semester with a lot of inspiration for art so hopefully you all will see that soon! Other than that… I have something pretty exciting to share!
As mentioned previously, I am currently in school to become a Licensed Veterinary Technician (essentially, a vet nurse.) and it is thanks to my school that I have been offered the wonderful opportunity to travel abroad to the Dominican Republic to help animal welfare. But this comes at a cost and I need help in reaching the funds to be able to go.
This experience will aid me in bettering my skills as a future LVT, but more importantly, I, alongside Project Samana’s team plus my colleagues and the veterinarian & LVTs that are educating me will be able to provide necessary veterinary care to animals who would otherwise not have it. By donating you are backing a wonderful cause and helping out animals in need!
Unfortunately, at the moment I do not currently have the time to take on any more commissions, but if this is to change I will update. For now, we have a donation pool (yayyy!)
Any and I really mean any, a dollar goes a long way in this economy, amount helps. I have until August to raise the necessary funds to be able to go.
If you are wanting to donate money but are unable to through kofi *please* reach out to me. If you are unable to donate in general, consider sharing this with someone who might be able to or who can help with outreach!
To donate, see here: https://ko-fi.com/sevenator/goal?g=0
To learn more about Project Samana please go here: https://www.projectsamana.org
Any additional funds to this goal will go towards the budget for future outreach events that my program may hold for future cohorts
Thank you so much in advance if you do choose to donate, you are helping thousands by doing so and I am eternally grateful. I hope to return the favor by going out and helping the community!
We’ve reached a little over halfway, but there’s still more to go! With the money we have raised so far I have been able to purchase the tickets to fly out & return. The remainder, once fulfilled, will need to go towards the deposit i must make for the hotel stay, food, gas for the car rental we are using, & to be able to purchase items i need in preparation for the trip
