At Animal Ark Animal Hospital, we’re community driven and believe it is important to be of service beyond the confines of the hospital. Several of our employees participate in or engage in activities that benefit those in our community and around the world.
Animal Ark sponsors six scholarships for students at Mississippi State University in the Animal/Dairy Science Dept, College of Engineering, College of Veterinary Medicine, and a STEM minority scholarship for those in the impoverished area of the Delta of Mississippi. The Linda “Big Lou” Schuerer Scholarships are in memory of Dr. Paula’s mother, the Paul H. Schuerer scholarships are in memory of her father.
The purpose of the mission was to partner with local churches to renovate homes of low income families. Dr Paula was also able to treat a dog of one of the families whose home was renovated with new windows which she helped install.
The purpose of the mission was to work with a local Malawi church to build homes and schools for children orphaned by HIV/AIDS. The provision of a home to a blood relative is aimed to keep the children within a true family setting.
