Angel Mendoza- Educator, Graphic Designer, one of the Original Friends of Tony Luna Creative, and member of “Living the Dream” class, Summer 2007 -

This week Angel lost his close buddy, Marley, better known as "The Mayor of Highland Park”. Marley was a lively, sweet, young 4-year-old Belgian Malinois mix. Angel is a teacher and is on a tight budget. We are reaching out to anyone willing to help with the veterinary medicine costs as a result of treatment for a very serious case of pneumonia. Marley needed high levels of antibiotics and specialized oxygen to help him breathe. Unfortunately, the cost of treatment came at a high price beyond what Angel could afford. Please help by donating, and in any way you can. We thank you for any support you can offer.
