“When Tallulah came into our care we all immediately fell in love with her. Small but so spunky despite her health issues and age. We knew she would need a very special home that could afford to keep up with her medical needs, give her a great life with lots of friends and also be knowledgeable enough to know when she was declining. Knowing Jen and having been to Tomten Sanctuary myself I reached out to them first! Thankfully the DEKM fund made it possible for Tomten to give her an amazing place to spend the rest of her days and meet all her needs! “
We’re here to champion, celebrate, learn, and grow alongside all of the projects we fund. DEKM funds small to medium sized foundations, organizations, and labs working to solve problems that may not otherwise get much funding and attention. We raise awareness and provide education around populations in need and issues often overlooked.
