Paws With A Cause
Paws with a Cause is a non-profit organization that trains assistance dogs to help people with disabilites. Founded in 1979, it was originally called "Ears for the Deaf," and specialized in hearing dogs. Since then, it has expanded to include mobility assistance and seizure response dogs as well, and services a large part of the United States. Most of the dogs are golden retrievers or labrador retrievers, but pure-breds like Cairn terriers, Papillions, and mixes such as labradoodles have also been used.

Why I chose this cause
I picked Paws With A Cause because I love dogs and I think is is a special organization. It is important to support PAWS and keep it going because it helps many people and makes their lives better and easier. When I get older I would like to be more involved with PAWS. I would like to foster puppies or at least be able to make donations.
