The HelpGreenDog campaign, initiated on behalf of Freedom Service Dogs, is still in high stride. In their efforts to raise $250,000 Freedom Service Dogs has received great support from local businesses. With their campaign being launched a few months back, Freedom Service Dogs is still working hard to raise $250,000 to rescue, train and place their service dogs with people in need. This 501(c)3 non-profit organization rescues unwanted and abandoned dogs from shelters and custom trains them to assist people with disabilities and our returning injured service members from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

In the efforts to keep this campaign strong, businesses are getting involved and supporting HelpGreenDog. Jamba Juice and Champps have recently hosted our Green Dog Days, where they have donated a portion of their proceeds for that day directly to Freedom Service Dogs. Also, businesses like the local Floyd’s 99 Barbershops have helped us with the awareness phase of the campaign, by being a great hot spot to display our bright green wood dogs. In addition, King Soopers, Croc’s Mexican Bar & Grill in downtown Denver, Hi*Rise, Tony’s Meat Market, Car Wash Express, Mutt-Mutt Palace, Rock Bottom Brewery, Cranium Studio, Marczyk Fine Foods, Murdoch’s Ranch and Home Supply, Blue Bonnet Café & Lounge, Runners Roost, Peaberry Coffee, Il Vicino, Dear Creek Middle School, Vain Salon, Loft 22, Pete’s Bar and Grill and Dog Savvy have all been strong supporters of this awareness campaign.
