Esther Scanner Update - April 2018
/Can You Believe It???
It's been just over two weeks and we're already almost 20% of the way to our goal of purchasing the Pegaso™!
This incredible piece of equipment delivers soft and hard tissue imaging that is so stunning, the world has never seen anything like it! Your incredible support through online and mail-in donations has been overwhelming and we can't thank you enough.
What your contribution will help us achieve
The acquisition of a Pegaso™ will change the game for large animals in Canada, and give many of them a fighting chance they just didn't have before.
This scanner also will allow the Ontario Veterinary College (OVC) to train future veterinarians to better treat large animals, and study what happens to them as they age and/or injure themselves. Plus, it will save lives in emergency situations and provide piece-of-mind to countless people when their loved one is sick.
Some Easy Ways That You Can Help
Every dollar counts!
There are so many fun and easy ways that you can help us reach our goal. How about...
- Organizing your own mini fundraiser, or special event.
- Share the campaign through social media as often as possible with your family, friends, and colleagues.
- Challenge your friends and family to a "mini match donation" contest.
- And always...be an Esther Scanner advocate and let people know about what we are doing, and why.
Remember... no contribution is too small! Every single dollar we raise will get us closer to the goal of providing life-saving diagnostic imaging services to large animals.
