How Your Gift Makes An Impact
The Military Animal Project provides all services at no cost to veterans, ensuring that financial hardship never stands in the way of healing.
Veteran Canine Programs
When you give, your support allows rescue dogs to be trained as Emotional Support Dogs and Physical/Psychiatric Service Dogs for veterans. Your gift helps veterans with PTS, TBI, MST, anxiety, and depression receive the stability and comfort these companions provide.
Equine Buddies Program
Your contribution helps horses participate in guided ground work of horsemanship sessions with veterans, fostering trust, confidence, and resilience. Donations make these life-changing connections possible.
Certified Therapy Dog Teams
Donations make it possible for Certified Therapy Dog Teams to visit veterans in hospitals, care homes, and private homes. Your gift brings comfort and companionship to veterans, reminding them they’re never alone.
Veteran Pet Support Services
Your support enables MAP to provide temporary fostering, veterinary care, and essential supplies to veterans, ensuring they never have to give up the pets they love.
