The Farley Foundation

Chicopee Hills Animal Hospital has proudly supported The Farley Foundation through fundraising and community involvement for many years.

Our hospital has participated in Farley Fun Days, the Ride for Farley, and various clinic fundraising initiatives, all made possible by the generosity of our clients and the dedication of our team.

Each October, we hold our annual fundraising campaign to raise donations for The Farley Foundation. We are grateful to our clients and community for their continued support in helping pets receive the care they need.
