This year marks a huge milestone – our 35th anniversary! 

Since 1990, we’ve been on a mission to change the lives of disabled people by partnering them with amazing assistance dogs. These partnerships help people live more independent, connected, and fulfilling lives. 

Thanks to our incredible community of staff, volunteers, and supporters, we’ve created and supported over 1,000 partnerships. 

Our commitment is lifelong. We support each partnership until the dog retires and continue to stand by our partners for life, providing dogs for as long as they are needed. Some of our partners have been with us for decades, benefiting from the support of multiple dogs. 

Together, we’ve transformed a thousand lives. But the impact goes far beyond that, as friends, families, and communities of those we support also benefit from the independence, confidence, and security we provide to our partners. 

As we celebrate this incredible milestone, we want to thank you for your support and invite you to join us in the celebration. Find out how to get involved below, or read more about our history and impact.

We have achieved so much since 1990, but there is so much more we can do, with your help.
