We are the primary veterinary care provider for pets of low-income people.
The charitable mission of St. Francis Pet Care (SFPC) is to help people in our most vulnerable communities remain together with their pets so both can benefit from the human-animal bond. To this end, we provide primary veterinary care to the companion animals of homeless persons, veterans, and very low-income residents of North Central Florida.
Your support enables us to reduce the number of companion animals turned into shelters when their owners can no longer afford their pets’ care and increase the proportion of spayed and neutered pets in the population we serve. With your help, we educate our clients in responsible pet care and help them improve the lives of their pets. In addition to our Downtown Clinic, your donation allows us to hold two outreach clinics every month, one at Gainesville’s homeless center (Grace Marketplace) and one at the Southwest Advocacy Group (SWAG) in the Linton Oaks neighborhood.
