Review for Labs For Liberty, Hill City, SD, USA
Being a part of Labs for Liberty has been a profound experience for me. I came to Labs for Liberty with a 16 year background from another service dog organization that was much larger, but I felt was losing focus of what really mattered. I am an ardent volunteer and not content with giving a couple hours or money to a charity once a year. Labs for Liberty has provided both prolific opportunities for service and keeps focus on the purpose of the organization, serving veterans. I have only been volunteering with them for 2 years and have seen a lot of growth and support in that time frame. Not all organizations are willing to accommodate such growth because of further need for funding, resources, and time frame. Labs for Liberty has not backed away from the growth. There is a need in serving veterans and they have found the means to move forward. Whether by adjusting training of dogs or recruiting and refining the volunteer process, they meet the needs to serving veterans.
In having a background in service dog work, I still have learned so much and have been able to grow myself. Being able to work with dogs is great, but getting to know the people and connections with Labs for Liberty has truly been the best part. Learning of their stories and experiences is truly humbling. It many ways, it is like having this unique, extended family.
