The Schwarzman Animal Medical Center in New York is the world’s largest nonprofit animal hospital with a mission to provide the best in care, research and education. The Emma and Georgina Bloomberg AMC to the Rescue Fund plays an important role to the center. Established in 2013, it provides free or subsidized specialty care to rescue animals who are hard to adopt because of health issues.
The fund was named for Emma and Georgina Bloomberg in 2020 in recognition of their generous support, and over the last decade, the fund has helped more than 600 pets, partnered with more than 140 rescue groups and provided over $1.6 million in donated care to help animals find their forever homes.
“It’s an honor to support the Animal Medical Center, an organization that has changed the lives of so many animals in New York City and beyond,” says Georgina Bloomberg. “By helping the AMC to the Rescue Fund, my sister and I are addressing a major obstacle in animal adoption and ensuring that the homeless animals of this city will have a better chance of finding the forever homes they deserve. Thank you, AMC, for everything you do for the animals of this amazing city and for letting us be a small part of it.”
AMC will highlight several heartwarming stories of rescue animals that have been helped by the fund throughout the year. To learn more about AMC to the Rescue’s 10th anniversary, visit amcny.org/community-funds/amc-to-the-rescue.
