Thank you to everyone who came out to support The ONE Fund! Your generosity and enthusiasm made this event incredible ~🐾
A huge thank you to Erin and PDX Wine Events for hosting such an amazing fundraiser, and to Dauntless Veteran Foundation for their continued partnership in changing veterans' lives through service dogs.
To everyone who threw axes, bought raffle tickets, enjoyed Fat Baby BBQ, and showed up with open hearts — YOU are making it possible for another deserving veteran to receive a life-changing service dog.
This is what community looks like. Thank you for being part of something truly special. ❤️

Behind every service dog is a story of transformation ~🐾
Meet our dogs in training—future heroes who will provide PTSD support, offer grounding during anxiety episodes, and be steadfast companions to veterans and civilians who need them most. But quality training requires quality nutrition.
This Giving Tuesday, December 2nd, we need YOUR help to raise $13,000 for dog food. That's a full year of premium nutrition for dogs who will spend their lives serving others.
These dogs give everything. Let's give them the fuel they need!
