My Nonprofit Reviews

Like many other volunteers, I started my affiliation as a donor. I thought, “What a wonderful charity that serves law enforcement and protects their beautiful K9 partners.” However, my first attempt at donating a vest hit a glitch because of the intended recipient. This organization is 100% transparent. Their rules and regulations are strictly enforced and there are no exceptions. Because the officer was not able to initially comply with the application process, my donation became somewhat stalled. Sandy was on the phone immediately to assure me that my gift would be used as intended as soon as all the i’s were dotted and all the t’s were crossed. We had quite a few conversations about Vested Interest in K9’s, Inc., mainly how it came to be and her strictly aboveboard business model. To make a long story short, my first dog became vested and somehow in 2015 I became a volunteer. I still try to donate a vest every year to these wonderful dogs. Working directly with their handlers has proven to me time and again their love and devotion to their K9 partners. The gift of protection is made possible by Sandy and all the volunteers. It’s an admirable organization of which I’m proud to be a member. This is a picture of the dog who received my first donated vest. I inscribed it in honor of my dear mother-in-law who loved animals as much as I do. She had a framed picture of this handsome boy in her living room until the very end.
