PHILADELPHIA, PA — Ciardi Ciardi & Astin this week announced its partnership with Team Foster’s fundraising campaign to support Veterans and Service Dogs. Team Foster supports Service Dogs with training and veterinarian care and placing these dogs with Veterans. These service dogs offer vital support and companionship to veterans, aiding them in various aspects of their daily lives and helping to mitigate the challenges they face after their service. The partnership between Ciardi Ciardi & Astin and Team Foster aims to expand the availability of service dogs and enhance the quality of life for veterans in the community. The campaign seeks to raise funds and awareness to improve the lives of veterans by providing them with highly trained service dogs.
“We are thrilled to collaborate with Team Foster on this important initiative,” said Jen McEntee, Team Captain of Ciardi Ciardi & Astin and Director of Compliance for Team Foster. “I’m excited to join Team Foster and their incredible initiative to fight for the unmet needs of injured and disabled Veterans by bringing together civilians, Veterans, and highly trained service dogs. Team Foster’s mission is very important to me, and I’m proud to cycle with them to make a difference. Every dollar counts! Donate here https://charity.pledgeit.org/t/ddZo9IdseZ.”
22 Veterans & Service Members lose the battle to suicide per day. One service dog takes two years and more than $25,000 to properly train and partner with an injured Veteran. Ciardi Ciardi & Astin is a longtime supporter of Veterans and their families. Ciardi Ciardi & Astin recognizes the significant sacrifices veterans make in service to their country. Through this partnership, they aim to honor and support veterans by contributing to their overall well-being and providing them with the invaluable assistance of service dogs.
“One of the things that I’ve always admired about my firm is its unwavering support of Veterans. It all begins from the top, and I’m grateful to my partners for supporting those who serve. As a Managing Partner of a Veteran owned firm – this is of great personal pride to me- that my teammates give up their personal time for those who sacrificed for our freedom.” Daniel K. Astin (former JAG Officer USS Constellation CV64 1991-1993)
