Spring Supply Drive Benefitting Gabriel’s Angels
March 2023
Dudley Ventures’ employees celebrated the
start of spring by volunteering at Gabriel's
Angels, a non-profit organization that provides pet therapy to youth in
Arizona. Staff donated supplies for their ABC pet therapy program, and then had
the opportunity to go to their facility and help pack backpacks for their
upcoming graduation ceremony. During our visit, we had the pleasure of meeting
with Michelle and her therapy dog, Caymus. They shared with us the incredible
impact that pet therapy can have on children who are facing difficult
challenges, and how the simple act of spending time with a dog can help bring
them comfort and joy. It was truly inspiring to witness the dedication and
passion of the Gabriel's Angels team and learn about the positive impact that
they are having on the lives of so many young people in our community.
We were also honored to
attend and support the Gabriel's Angels Unleash the Love fundraising
event on March 30th! Over 300 people came together to learn about the
organization's impactful programs, and we were blown away by the positive
energy and support in the room. We are proud to support their mission and look
forward to continuing our partnership with them in the future.
