Proudly Supporting Pups4PatriotsTM
We’ve partnered with American Humane to change lives at both ends of the leash.
Since 2019, we have pledged over $1 million to help dogs find homes and veterans find healing.
Pups4Patriots™ is a program committed to putting more leashes into the hands of more veterans in need. The program rescues qualified dogs in need of forever homes and trains them to act as service pets for veterans with post-traumatic stress (PTS) and traumatic brain injury (TBI).
Many brave members of the U.S. Armed Forces face another daunting battle when they return to civilian life. Psychological wounds, including PTS, can cause depression and social isolation—which leads to suicide far too often.
American Humane is dedicated to helping veterans heal through the power of the human-animal bond. Scientific research has increasingly revealed that with special training, dogs have the ability to lower stress, anxiety levels and feelings of depression, aid social reintegration, and give veterans much-needed comfort and confidence.
But there are still challenges that limit how many veterans get paired with service dogs. There are lengthy waiting lists, and the costs of intensive training can reach as high as $30,000.
With Our Commitment, we have helped find Homes for 110 Dogs.
Coleman has supported American Humane Society since 2019, collaborating to support a life-changing initiative that pairs specially trained service dogs in need of their forever home with U.S. veterans and retired first responders struggling with Post-Traumatic Stress (PTS) and Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). Coleman’s donations have contributed to the program and helped Pups4Patriots train and match more than 110 service dogs with U.S. veterans and retired first responders.
At Coleman, we take our ability to help those who defend us and our freedom in a personal way. We have more than a dozen veterans employed at our company and many more among our friends and family. We like to dream big when veterans are in need and turn that dream into reality. We are proud to make this contribution.
You can support this effort with every purchase of a Coleman product.
