I recently wrote about the Ironwood Pig Sanctuary in Arizona to shine a light on the great work they are doing to help neglected, unwanted and sick pot-bellied pigs http://hedgys.blogspot.com/2015/04/ironwood-pig-sanctuary.html. Now I’m coming to you about a specific pig. His name is Samuel, he’s an elderly pig with some medical issues. Samuel has a sponsor, our CEO Janina Reed. She sends Ironwood Pig Sanctuary money each month for his care and has recently sponsored some dental work for him.
Unfortunately, Janina is now fighting her own battle with Hepatitis C and, at the same time, Samuel is sick. This is so much for her to handle, she considers Samuel one of her very own animals and it’s hurts her when he’s sick.
Samuel is one of almost 600 pot-bellied pigs that live at the sanctuary. As you know, when someone in the family has a medical crisis it puts a strain on an already tight budget, which is the biggest struggle at Ironwood. We are hoping that some of you can help. A fun way to do this is by sponsoring your own pig. They have a gallery on their website with lots of pictures of these sweet pigs that need a sponsor.
You can take a look and read a little story about each pig at http://www.ironwoodpigsanctuary.org/support.html. If that seems like more of commitment that you would like to make, a one-time donation would go a long way in helping. You can donate using the same link.
