CALENDARS

Due to a big 2019 price increase with the calendar production, we have increased the cost for last year. The calendar price remains the same this year and is as follows:

Calendar donation inside USA (handling but not shipping included) will be $28 per calendar.
Calendar donation outside USA (handling but not shipping included) will be $28 per calendar.
 
All net donations from these calendars will go in their entirety to our 501c3 public charity organization, The Epi4Dogs Foundation, Inc.

Epi4Dogs Foundation Inc.’s mission is the advancement of science and education relating to EPI (Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency), yielding useful insights and positive outcomes in better managing EPI in dogs and cats.  Our goals are to support and/or collaborate with veterinary EPI research and researchers, and to promote EPI awareness by educating the general public, pet owners, pet organizations, rescue and shelter organizations, veterinary schools and veterinarians.
  
A full accounting of calendar production & processing costs and donations will be posted on the Epi4Dogs website. In the past, we have allocated calendar donations completely to EPI Research and EPI Awareness and we will continue to distribute all donations in the same manner.

Zero dollars go to administration fees as Epi4Dogs is a 100% volunteer organization.
