Tiny But Mighty Fund

Specialties

The Tiny But Mighty Fund was created to celebrate the unbreakable bonds between animals and their companions, while also raising awareness and funding for animal welfare and rescue groups in the Middle Tennessee community. It honors the spirit of Chico, a miniature Chihuahua that passed away in 2013 from congestive heart failure, and is named for the inspiration he provided his owner, and to serve as a reminder that even the tiniest acts of kindness can make a mighty big difference.

History

Established in 2013.

«Twelve years + eight months, his age. For ten years, he brought joy and love. He ferociously battled a failing heart for nearly 18 months. At 9:23AM on November 7^th, I said goodbye to the love of my life. Even in his final moments, he resisted giving up and fought for every breath in his miniature five pound body. He was and for eternity will be Tiny But Mighty. I didn’t have the opportunity to mumble these last words to him but I believe with all of my heart and soul that he already knew: On that fateful day when we met at the animal shelter a decade ago, you rescued me. I now believe in love, have compassion, and am the individual that I am today because of you. Your final lesson to me is that life is truly too short. I must make every day count until it’s my time to depart and we are reunited again. I love you buddy.» — Marcia Masulla

YES, the love of my life was a scrappy rescued chihuahua named Chico.

I know that many of you know exactly why I feel the way that I do while some of you may be scratching your head in disbelief. Frankly, I would have had the same reaction as the latter of the two just 10 years ago, but I now know. Read on.

We believe this statement wholeheartedly which is why we launchd the Tiny But Mighty Fund to not only honor Chico’s spirit, but to also celebrate the unbreakable bonds between pups and their people while also raising some much-​needed funds to connect more of our furry friends with families.
