Who We Are and What We Do
Scotties Rock Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit public charitable organization that raises funds to assist Scottish Terrier owners and rescue groups who have limited financial resources with veterinary care expenses. Our pay-it-forward concept engages recipients of that financial assistance in contributing toward the resources of the organization, when they are able, to in turn help others. Read more on the ABOUT US page. The Scotties Rock Foundation board also oversees the Scotties Rock social media Facebook site. Scotties Rock is a place for members to network, share news and accomplishments, receive condolences for loss of Scottie and other pet friends, learn about Scottie-related events... and so much more. The weekly Sunday morning Paw Up posts are a place for support of members and their loved ones (human and canine) facing illness or other challenges. |
How You Can Help
Scotties Rock Foundation receives no official funding nor does it receive money from any charitable grant. We are dependent upon the generosity of the public. Individual donors are our lifeline. We raise funds through twice-yearly Facebook auctions, sales of Scotties Rock-themed merchandise and items in our Zazzle Store, Amazon Smile and through private one-time or monthly recurring donations. Learn more about opportunities to donate to and support Scotties Rock Foundation on our DONATE page.
