2013 San Marco Wells Fargo Community Partner

Jacksonville, FL (June 14, 2013): St. Francis Animal Hospital, a not-for-profit veterinary hospital located in San Marco at 2107 Mango Place, Jacksonville, FL 32207, has been chosen by the San Marco Wells Fargo to be their Community Partner for 2013. San Marco Wells Fargo Store Manager Matt Moberg presented a $1,000 donation check to St. Francis Animal Hospital at the Wells Fargo Community Partner breakfast at the Cummer Museum and Gardens on May 15.
Wells Fargo proudly supports organizations working to strengthen their local communities and believes that grant-making decisions are more effective when made locally. That’s why Wells Fargo gets actively involved in the communities where they do business. In 2012, Wells Fargo invested more than $16 million in nonprofits and schools in Florida communities. This includes the Community Partners Program, where teams in all 656 of the Florida Wells Fargo stores chose an organization in each of their communities to receive a grant. Florida team members also donated $3.6 million in personal contributions and pledges during the 2012 Community Support and United Way campaign, and logged more than 75,000 volunteer hours in their Florida communities.
“St. Francis Animal Hospital is honored to be chosen the San Marco Wells Fargo Community Partner for 2013. It is wonderful that a San Marco business is supporting a San Marco nonprofit. Thanks to the generous support from our San Marco Wells Fargo neighbors, we will be able to help more pets in need of medical care,” said Sandy Golding, Director of Development for St. Francis Animal Hospital.
ABOUT ST. FRANCIS ANIMAL HOSPITAL:
Founded in 2003 by San Marco resident and veterinarian Dr. Susan Green Shelton, St. Francis Animal Hospital’s mission is to provide affordable veterinary care to all owned pets in the Jacksonville area. In support of their mission, St. Francis Animal Hospital treats every patient with compassion, providing quality and comprehensive care that protects the special bond that exists between people and their pets. For so long, it has been the philosophy of some veterinarians – and even some pet owners – that if you can’t afford to care for an animal, you shouldn’t have a pet. As common as this theory may
be, it is flawed. St. Francis Animal Hospital believes everyone deserves the unconditional love of a happy and healthy pet and all pets deserve to be in a loving home. Furthermore, St. Francis Animal Hospital believes it is not right to let an animal suffer with less than ideal treatment because their owner can’t afford to pay. This is why it is a priority for St. Francis Animal Hospital veterinarians to provide the same high level of care to pets of all families over making a profit. Through their dedicated work and support from donors, St. Francis is keeping pets healthy and helping families keep their pets in their homes and out of local animal shelters.
