We need to raise $9,500 for each NEADS Assistance Dog team to cover part of the $20,000 cost of raising and training the dog and for assisting our clients in learning to live and work with his or her new canine assistant. Please help a team (or more, if you can) by donating all or a portion of the sponsorship by clicking on the person listed below. You will learn a little about that person and how a dog will make a difference in their life.
