#GivingTuesday

By Cathy King | Executive Director

Thanksgiving, Black Friday, Cyber Monday, feeling like it's time to give back to those who may not be in a place to enjoy time spent with family or shopping? #GivingTuesday is your chance. 

Canines With a Cause rescues dogs from shelters, they are placed in the Utah State Prison where they live and train with women inmates. The dogs are given a chance to live a happy life with a loving companion.

The women inmates benefit from learning a vocational skill and having the chance to give back to society, they are given a chance for redemption. 

The dogs are then matched with Veterans looking for a service or companion dog to help them deal with their Post Traumatic Stress. The dogs visit training classes until a match is found. The Veteran then adopts the dog and they continue training, an important process for bonding and developing the partnership needed for the Veteran and the dog.

The Veterans are given a non-judgmental partner to watch their back, help them with anxiety and other issues as well as  unconditional love.

Tomorrow is your chance to give and GlobalGiving will be providing matching rewards and bonus prizes. Your chance to give in so many important, impactful ways.

Thank you for your continued support.

Happy Holidays,

Cathy
