About Us

Our First Save: Brody
The Heartworm Foundation was founded in 2013 by animal rescue volunteers who recognized that heartworms present a significant barrier to adoption for animals in our public shelters. The costs involved in treating this disease dissuade people from adopting, and other non-profit animal rescue organizations from rescuing dogs with heartworms. The Heartworm Foundation was created to raise money to help with these costs so that these deserving animals could find their way to their forever homes.
Brody was our very first Thankful in 2017, now living the good life in New England.
