Help Robert Get His Service Dog

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Dajana, and I'm raising funds for my amazing 8-year-old son, Robert. Robert lives with autism, ADHD, and anxiety. While he faces every day with bravery, the world can be overwhelming and even dangerous for him. He is prone to wandering, struggles with sensory overload, and battles intense anxiety daily.

A trained service dog would help Robert with safety and elopement prevention, calming during meltdowns and anxiety episodes, emotional support and companionship, and building confidence and independence. We applied to nonprofit service dog organizations, but the waitlists are 1–2 years long — and Robert needs help now. We found a qualified trainer who can provide a service dog matched to Robert's needs, covering the dog, training, handler sessions, and follow-up support.

This amount is more than our family can manage on our own, and we're humbly asking for help. Every donation — no matter how small — brings Robert closer to having a partner, protector, and best friend by his side. If you can't donate, sharing this campaign means just as much. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for supporting Robert. With gratitude, Dajana & Robert
