Extracurricular Activities

Paws Healing Heroes Board Member and Volunteer

A non-profit organization that helps to pair Veterans with PTSD dogs. I help organize and run events ensuring they run smoothly. Through events and donations, we raise money for the adoptions and training of the service dogs. These PTSD dogs are then paired with their veteran at no expense to the veteran. It's a great organization and the best part is giving back to the community and seeing these veterans come back to life.
