Joliet Junior College Veterinary Medical Technology Program

This semester, our JJC Animal Sponsorship Program has taken off in ways we could have only dreamed of! 🥹

We officially have MORE sponsors than animals! That means some of our furry friends have multiple people sponsoring them, and we couldn't be more grateful! 🐶🐱💜

Thanks to your incredible generosity, we’ll be purchasing brand-new enrichment toys, treats, and puzzles for both our dogs and cats! These items help keep our animals mentally stimulated, happy, and engaged while they stay with us on campus.

From all of us at JJC, both the two-legged and four-legged members of our program, THANK YOU for making this possible! Your support truly makes a difference in our animals’ lives. 🐾💜

✨ Still want to become a sponsor? You can! ✨

Our sponsorship program is open all year long, so there’s always an opportunity to support our amazing animals!

The “Pick Your Pet” emails have officially been sent out! 🐶🐱

Please check your inbox (and spam/junk folder just in case!) and email us back ASAP with your pick so we can match you with your sponsored animal!

We’re so excited for you to meet your new furry friend and be part of their journey at JJC!

Thank you for supporting the JJC Veterinary Technology Program and making a difference in these animals’ lives. We couldn’t do this without you! 🐾💜

🚨ATTENTION, ANIMAL LOVERS… THEY’RE ARRIVING!🚨

🎉 Our animals are starting to arrive, and we’ll have the rest of our furry friends joining us over the NEXT TWO WEEKS! 🐶🐱💜

And that means one very important thing…

📧 SPONSORS: CHECK YOUR INBOX! 📧

Keep an eye out for your “PICK YOUR PET!” email! 👀, I’ll be sending pictures of our adorable new arrivals so you can choose which animal you’d like to sponsor this semester.

And if you’re sitting there thinking…

🤔 “Wait… I didn’t sponsor an animal yet.”

We accept sponsors ALL SEMESTER LONG, so you can still join our JJC family and pick your very own animal to support! 🐾💜

As we wrap up another incredible semester in the JJC Vet Tech Program, we want to give a HUGE thank you to all of our amazing sponsors and supporters 🐾❤️

Because of your generosity, we were able to continue helping our animals find loving homes while giving our students invaluable hands-on experience. Your support truly makes a difference for both our students and the animals in our care!

This semester brought more successful adoptions, happy endings, and second chances — and we could not do it without our wonderful community standing behind us.

Be on the lookout this fall for opportunities to become a sponsor or sponsor again! We are always grateful for those willing to help support our program and the animals who come through it.

And as always:
✨ Adopt, don’t shop ✨
When you are considering adding a furry family member to your home, please consider adopting through JJC!

Thank you again for helping us make a difference, one paw at a time 🐶🐱❤️
