On Saturday, June 7th, the War Dogs NFP held a motorcycle ride benefitting K9s for Veterans – a charity that provides specially-trained service dogs for veterans battling with post-traumatic stress. Each dog that is provided to the vet includes food and medical care for life.
The ride was based out of Harley-Davidson Woodstock and led by police officers from the Illinois State Police, McHenry County Sheriff, and McHenry County Forest Preserve Police – all riding their specially equipped motorcycles.
Disparti Law Group was proud to support the War Dogs and K9s for Veterans in their vital mission. Marine Corps veteran Dan Miller addressed the riders and shared that more than 30 fellow soldiers dealing with post-traumatic stress took their lives after serving. K9s for Veterans hopes to cut that number with their service dogs.
“Without donations like Disparti’s, we couldn’t continue to do the work that we do. Your donation will go directly toward giving another vet a service dog. And that will change a life,” said Michael Tellerino, CEO/Founder of K9s for Veterans, NFP.
“Our clients have the rights that we fight for every day in court because of our armed forces. It is only that we stand and support them in any way possible,” says Larry Disparti, Founder of Disparti Law Group
The ride was produced by the War Dogs NFP. War Dogs is a non-profit organization that organizes events and fundraisers that support veterans and first responders who suffer from post-traumatic stress or traumatic brain injuries.
