Empowering
Hope Together

Sophie’s Light exists to honor the dogs we’ve loved and lost by raising awareness and supporting research for hemangiosarcoma,.

Our ethos

We lead with love.
Sophie’s Light Foundation was born from the love we had for Sophie and the loss that followed. Everything we do begins with compassion, for dogs, for families, and for the veterinarians and researchers working tirelessly to change outcomes.

We believe awareness saves time.
Hemangiosarcoma is often silent until it is not. We are committed to helping more people recognize the signs, ask better questions, and advocate earlier, because time matters, and knowledge can change what’s possible.

We carry the light forward.
Sophie’s Light is about legacy, not just Sophie’s, but the legacy we leave through advocacy, research support, and community. We move forward with hope, humility, and the belief that love can be transformed into something that helps others.
