The Onyx & Breezy Foundation was started by the Shefts around 12 years ago when they lost their two beloved dogs named Onyx and Breezy within a few weeks of each other. Although Mr. and Mrs. Shefts were able to provide very good care for their dogs, they were concerned about others not being able to do so. After starting to donate locally, they decided to form the foundation to help those who cannot afford medical care for their pets. Stacey Ribotsky, as reported in News 12, volunteered for The Onyx and Breezy Foundation for a long time.
