Dear Friend,

 

We are thrilled to bring you some exciting stories in this edition of the Mobility Dogs newsletter. First up, we have two new additions to the Mobility Dog training pack Rosco and Oskar who are pictured above. Read on to find out more about how you can sponsor one of these gorgeous fluff balls!

 

Plus, we're excited to share more information about what we will be doing with the amazing sponsorship we have received from National Mini Storage. It's also wonderful to let you all know that in October the Urban Biker 'Life Changing Loyalty Ride' fundraising event will be going ahead on October 15 after taking a 'covid' break.

 

As always, we're grateful for your continued support , and we hope that these stories will inspire you as much as they inspire us.

Become a Puppy Sponsor and help change lives!

We are excited to announce our latest puppy sponsorship campaign at Mobility Dogs! By becoming a puppy sponsor it enables you to make a direct impact on the lives of New Zealanders living with a disability by helping train our newest canine recruits who will become life-changing companions.

By sponsoring a puppy, you are helping us to provide the necessary care and training needed to equip these dogs with the skills they need to change someone's life. Not only that, you will receive exclusive updates on your pup's progress, including photos and regular updates on your puppies adventures.

Get involved in this life-changing opportunity today and find out more about puppy sponsorship via the link below.

Yes, I want to find out more about being a puppy sponsor!
 

Celebrating success as winner of one of the National Mini Storage 'Creating Space Sponsorships'

We are thrilled and honored to announce that Mobility Dogs has been chosen as one of the 8 winners of the prestigious National Mini Storage Creating Space Sponsorships! This incredible achievement comes with a grant of $10,000 in cash and the invaluable support of two free storage units for one full year.

The National Mini Storage Creating Space Sponsorships is an amazing campaign that recognises and supports organizations that are dedicated to making a positive difference in the lives of people within their local communities. To be selected as one of the winners among numerous outstanding applicants is a true testament to the hard work and impact of Mobility Dogs.

The funds will be used to create a new training space for the dogs at our Henderson HQ. The space will have doors with ropes for the dogs to learn how to pull open, pedestrian crossing buttons for them to learn how to push and many other training tools. The additional storage units will prove instrumental in our operations, allowing us to efficiently manage and organise essential equipment, supplies, and resources.

We would like to express our sincerest gratitude to National Mini Storage for their commitment to supporting an organisation like Mobility Dogs.

 

Bikers & dogs seem to just go together like potatoes & gravy on a Sunday Roast!

We're so pleased that Urban Biker has chosen to support Mobility Dogs again this year by hosting the 2nd edition of the Life Changing Loyalty Ride.

 

In the immortal words of the Urban Biker crew, 'Bikers & dogs seem to just go together like potatoes & gravy on a Sunday Roast.' So please save the date (Sun 15th Oct) and get in behind this fun Wellington ride.

 

More details will follow soon on our various social media channels on how to participate on the day or to make a donation.

 

It will be a fun filled day and we are very much looking forward to it!
