A Nonprofit for Pets Offering
Medical and Training Assistance to
Families in Need

At Diesel’s FootPrint, our goal is to protect the well-being of pets in need while reducing the financial burden on low-income pet owners during tough times. We believe no one should have to choose between their pet’s health and their family’s needs. By providing vital assistance, we strengthen the human-animal bond and ensure that pet owners in Santa Clara County receive the support they need for their pets’ medical care.

About Diesel

Our nonprofit organization is committed to honoring the legacy of our cherished friend and dog, Diesel. Diesel showed incredible resilience as he fought through ten years of medical issues and trauma. Kaajal Tiwary, the founder and president of Diesel’s FootPrint, understands the challenges and emotional toll of securing the funds and support needed to manage serious, acute, or chronic medical conditions. Despite Diesel’s bravery, his life was sadly cut short by a medical error, and we continue his legacy with a mission to help others.
