The Good Dog Foundation depends on the gala to fund its mission. We train and certify the finest therapy dog / human-handler teams in the nation. We deploy them throughout the Greater New York area to hospitals, schools, nursing homes and libraries. We annually help over 100,000 adults and children recover from trauma, overcome illness, and surmount learning disabilities.
