SSD Fire Has His Sneakers Ready. Do You?

SSD Fire has his sneakers ready for the Highmark Walk for a Healthy Community. Do you have yours ready?   Susquehanna Service Dogs is one of 41 organizations participating in the Highmark Walk for a Healthy Community. Lace up your sneakers and join Fire and SSD in the 5K Walk or One Mile Fun Walk at Harrisburg Area Community College on May 18. All of the funds raised for SSD go directly to SSD.   There are several ways you can support SSD in the Highmark Walk for a Healthy Community.

  1. Sign up for the Highmark Walk, raise money, and walk on May 18, 2013.
  2. Can't make it? Be a virtual walker.
  3. Make a donation.

Our goal is to raise $20,000. Those funds will cover the cost of caring for four litters of puppies for the first nine weeks of their lives. Right now, we have three litters that need your support! with your help, we can reach 100% of our goal and get these puppies off to a good start.

These puppies will become service dogs and change lives. Soon after getting his service dog, one boy slept in his own bed for the first time, with his service dog curled up next to him. "It did not take long to realize what an amazing dog Shamrock is," said the boy's mother. "I have seen so much good from my son and Shamrock being together."

Will you join us for the Highmark Walk for a Healthy Community and help us change lives?
