How to Support Our Mission
K9s For Warriors (K9FW) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.
You are vital to our mission of rescuing and training shelter dogs to be paired as Service Dogs for veterans experiencing service-connected trauma. There are many ways you can directly reduce veteran suicide and return our Warriors to a life of dignity and independence.
More Ways to Support Those Who Have Served
Donating items for the comfort and enjoyment of our Service Dogs-in-training or veterans who come to take part in our program is a meaningful way to get involved. Click here to view our Amazon wish list.
Visa gift card donations also are always appreciated. They help our House Moms provide for our veterans’ specific needs and requests, and cover on-the-go meals when our K9s and Warriors are out training.
You may not be driving that old car, truck, boat, RV, or other motorized vehicles in your driveway, but it can help drive our mission. K9s For Warriors partners with CARS (Charitable Adult Rides & Services) to pick up your unwanted vehicle and sell it on behalf of our organization.
You can learn more and start the donation process by clicking here. Pickup is free, and you may qualify for a tax deduction. CARS will provide the proper tax forms for you when the sale of your vehicle is completed.
If you have time to support K9s For Warriors’ mission, we have ample opportunities for you to help. Volunteers in our office help keep morale high and our administrative costs low. Our four-legged heroes and their trainers always can use help in our kennels, or you might be asked to volunteer at an event on behalf of K9s For Warriors.
If you have time to devote to K9s For Warriors and want to do your part to save veteran lives, please email volunteers@k9sforWarriors.org.
Veterans spend most of our three-week program bonding with their Service Dog and with our Warrior trainers, but, we always are looking for ways to make their downtime special. We’ve held art classes and even had professional masseurs volunteer their time and resources. Handmade items that provide comfort for our Warrior/K9 Teams also are appreciated.
If you have a talent or skill you would like to share to enhance our program, please send your ideas to info@K9sforWarriors.org.
