Help Us Transform Lives with Your Generosity

With ZERO annual government funding, Dogs for Disabled depend entirely on the kindness and generosity of our supporters. Through voluntary fundraising efforts, sponsorships and donations, we are able to continue our mission. Our highly trained assistance dogs are provided to their partners completely free of charge, ensuring that those in need receive our life-changing dogs regardless of their ability to pay.

If you believe in our mission, join us on our journey to help more people.
