Background
So many of you have asked about a memorial for Sarah and options to help set up Nolan for a lifetime of opportunity. After a lot of consideration and discussion with her family we have decided to set up a fund in her honor. Nolan and Ryan would love to make donations on behalf of Sarah to organizations near and dear to her heart. Please do not feel any obligation to donate as your thoughts and prayers have already given us great comfort. If you choose to make a donation you may do so here.
If you feel more comfortable donating to a cause directly in remembrance of her please consider these sources:
Southwest Oasis Labrador Rescue. Sarah fostered and found homes for many amazing pups as part of this organization. Please do leave a comment in the optional box stating your donation is in memory of Sarah Matz if you choose to donate here:
https://donorbox.org/southwest-oasis-labrador-rescue
ALS Arizona. This organization provided our family with resources and equipment necessary to assist in caring for Sarah in the comfort of our home. They remain focused on providing care and support for families while funding research in hopes to someday find a cure for this disease:
