BirchBark protects and honors the human-animal bond through financial assistance to vulnerable families faced with unaffordable medical expenses to save the life of a pet, and support for all families with our education and pet loss counseling programs.
As a lifelong animal lover and guardian to dogs, cats, ferrets, rabbits, fish and reptiles, Sarah understands the unparalleled love that pets of all kinds bring to their families. As a former grantee during the CZU Lightning Complex Wildfire of 2020, Sarah also knows firsthand how important a life-line can be in uncertain times.
Sarah is incredibly passionate about serving her community, and helping families and their animals get the support they need to heal. Beginning in 2020, acting as Community Support Coordinator for BirchBark, Sarah guided many pet families through our Pet Aid process and our Pet Loss Support program. In her following role as Program Director, she worked closely with our veterinary partners and other organizations throughout the community to ensure that anyone who called upon BirchBark for help was provided with the support needed to get through the challenge they were facing. In 2022, in the role of Interim Executive Director, Sarah is committed to helping BirchBark continue to safeguard and improve the lives of pets and their families in our community.
