“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.”
- Coach Carter
Join us for our Veterans’ Day Charity competition this fall!
Chosen Charity:
Founded in 2011, K9s for Warriors has made it their mission to both find homes for shelter dogs, as well as help tackle the problem of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder in our wounded veterans.
As the nation’s largest veteran organization focused on providing service dogs to veterans, they use scientific research to mitigate the challenges of service-related trauma at no cost to the veteran.
Giving purpose to both the service animal, a majority of which are rescued from shelters, as well as the service member, K9s for Warriors strives to save lives, two at a time.
