Carmel, CA, June 29, 2020 — The Doris Day Animal Foundation (DDAF, www.DorisDayAnimalFoundation.org), a national nonprofit organization founded by the legendary actress, singer and animal welfare advocate, has provided a $7,500 grant to Max’s Helping Paws Foundation of Carmel.

“When we learned about Max’s Helping Paws and its work helping fund veterinary expenses for senior pets in Monterey County, we knew we wanted to help,” said CEO T. Robert Bashara DVM. “DDAF funds 501(c)(3) nonprofit charitable organizations helping animals and the people who love them. We’re proud to be able to support the founders and volunteers at Max’s Helping Paws and the good work they’re doing.”

Max’s Helping Paws co-founder Dyana Klein was overjoyed upon hearing the news. “This grant will help us in so many ways toward our mission of helping local families fund necessary treatment for pets in crisis,” she said. “We’re so grateful to have the support of, and recognition from such an exemplary and inspiring animal welfare organization.” What began in 2016 as a way for Klein to honor the memory of her beloved dog Maximillian has grown into a critical source of funding for local families, especially during the current pandemic. Max's Helping Paws has assisted hundreds of Monterey County pet owners by approving nearly $250,000 in veterinary care.
