Support the Pet Prescription Team: Bringing Comfort and Compassion for 21 Years
Help Us Continue Making a Difference Through Therapy Animal Visitations
Our Mission:
Founded in 2003 by Krystal Emery, the Pet Prescription Team has been delivering love, comfort, and healing through therapy animals for over two decades. With over 100,000 visitations documented, our dedicated volunteers and their therapy pets have brought compassion to those in hospitals, retirement homes, schools, libraries, jails, and special programs.
Why Your Support Matters:
Our therapy animals are a source of joy and healing for people facing difficult times. Whether it's a child finding comfort in reading to a therapy dog, or an elderly patient feeling the warmth of a visit, the impact of these animals is immeasurable. Over the past 21 years, we’ve partnered with organizations such as Ronald McDonald House, Los Angeles County Jails, Orange County Jails, and countless others to serve communities in need.
With the growing demand for our services, we need your support to continue expanding our reach.
The Solution
We’re committed to bringing the benefits of therapy dogs to those who need it most. Our dedicated teams visit facilities across California, spreading comfort, compassion, and companionship. From children improving their reading skills to seniors seeking comfort in their final years, and even inmates finding hope in dark times—our therapy dogs touch lives everywhere.
The Impact
A simple visit from a therapy dog can have a profound impact. It’s not just about wagging tails and friendly faces—it’s about giving people a sense of dignity and belonging. For children, seniors, patients, and inmates, these visits can provide newfound confidence, encouragement, and the realization that they matter.
Through these special interactions, those we serve gain the strength to face their challenges with renewed optimism and hope.
Your Opportunity to Help
Now, we want to give you the opportunity to be part of this mission. By supporting the Pet Prescription Team, you’re directly contributing to life-changing moments for those in need. Your donation helps us bring therapy dogs to more facilities, more people, and more lives.
What’s at Stake
No child or adult deserves to face isolation, loneliness, or a lack of connection. Together, we can make a difference and help:
- A child see their potential.
- A senior feel comforted.
- An inmate feel valued.
Every visit is a chance to restore hope in someone’s heart, and you can be the reason for that change.
For the next Month starting on September 23rd and ending on October 28th we are asking for your support. Each weeks donations will go toward a specific need of the Pet Prescription Team organization.
Week One:
To raise annual funds for the General Fund. These funds will then go toward the organization’s annual revenue goal. This campaign will take place during the first week.
Week Two:
Faith Dog Project. “The Faith Dog Project” in memory of Brielle Murray and her dog Faith. Brielle was a member of the PPT organization and passed away from a very rare form of cancer known as RMS.The Faith Dog Project hands out stuffed Faith dogs to children in oncology battling cancer. Through this project, Brielle lives on as these little stuffed dogs encourage and give hope to all those that receive one in her memory. This campaign will take place during the second week.
Week Three:
“There’s No Place Like Home” project. This project’s goal, as well as vision, is clear: to take the time and energy to create a relaxing atmosphere for a less fortunate resident by enhancing their patient room. We help by enhancing their belongings and creating a room that is more comfortable, providing them with a lasting impression of a time in their lives that gave them hope and purpose. This campaign will take place during the third week.
Week Four:
