Our mission is to provide free and accessible veterinary services to the beloved pets of unhoused and minority individuals in the greater Los Angeles Area.
Our Story
I began volunteering and getting involved in the Skid Row community in the summer of 2020 thanks to WaterDropLA. After six months of outreach, I realized how many animals live in the Skid Row area and how important they are to the community members. I felt very connected to these underdogs, and I had a vision of providing free and accessible veterinary care for the people and the animals that are overlooked everyday. After receiving a grant from Pets of the Homeless, I created our first wellness clinic on Skid Row. Now, I have founded the Underdog Community Project and we are working hard to create connections in the community and spread awareness of critical issues. I envision a world where veterinary care is free, quality, and accessible for all pet owners.
