It was an amazing Veterans Day for us here at The SOBB. It has been a dream of ours for many years to sponsor a service dog for a local veteran and our mission to make this happen finally came true. Today we donated $10,000 to 4 Paws For Ability in Xenia, OH.
This morning we had the pleasure of meeting Doug, his wife and his service dog Alfie who is a 2020 graduate of 4 Paws. Alfie is 8 years old and will soon be retiring. Doug has been fundraising to get a replacement for Alfie and we were glad to step in and help him to get the final funds he needed to make this happen. After Doug’s balance is covered the remainder of the funds will go to helping another veteran get a service dog thru the 4 Paws program.
We encourage you all to check out 4 Paws and the awesome work they do for veterans and children with disabilities. It’s truly amazing how much these animals help the individuals they are paired with. Thank you to ALL of our sponsors, supporters, volunteers and anyone who has helped us in reaching our goals with our fundraising for local veterans. We hope to have a lasting partnership with 4 Paws going forward and could not do it without the help from everyone that supports us.
