FROM THE FOUNDER
|
|
WHILE
BULLET WAS FIGHTING CANCER,
I was very aware of
how lucky I was that I had the resources to
help
him fight. I thanked the Universe every day. If I had missed the
opportunity to take Bullet on that journey, it would
have
broken my heart.
In the 2 years
since the inception of the Magic Bullet Fund, it has been my great
privelege and honor to help 22 beautiful dogs with cancer and their
people.

The Magic Bullet
Fund is about giving every dog the chance he or she deserves to survive
cancer. At best, it is about beating cancer. At least, it is about
giving people and their dogs more time together - more time to create
a few more precious memories.
Let's Make Magic!

Kaplan, Administrator

BIRTH OF THE FUND
|
|
The Magic
Bullet Fund was founded by Laurie Kaplan in conjunction with
the publication
of her book, Help Your Dog
Fight Cancer.
Laurie’s
Siberian Husky, Bullet, fought a brave
battle
against
canine cancer. Bullet had lymphoma, completed a 75-week
chemotherapy protocol and remained in remission for
the rest of his natural life — 4 years and
4 months. Bullet was 13 years and 8 months old on November 20, 2004,
when
Laurie lost him to renal failure.
On November
20, 2005, Laurie accepted the first dog,
Regal, into the Magic Bullet Fund and the fund began to fulfill its
mission in loving
memory of Bullet.
|
During the
fight for Bullet’s life, Laurie became
inspired to provide assistance to those
who are not able to afford
cancer treatment for their pups. Hoping to find a way to help them, she
founded the Magic Bullet Fund as a program of the 501 (C)(3) non profit
Perseus
Foundation.
|
| MISSION STATEMENT |
|
|
To help
those who have made room in
their homes and hearts for a canine companion, but do not have the
financial
resources to provide cancer treatment
for their dog. The fund provides financial assistance to
people who have dogs with cancer and cannot pay for treatment. The fund
assists dogs who would not receive
treatment at all without the fund’s help.
To raise public awareness about canine cancer and educate
all caretakers about cancer prevention, early detection and treatment
options.
The
Magic Bullet Fund is a
program of the Perseus Foundation. Donations are tax deductible.
