We are a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt charitable organization that has been serving the
Sacramento community since 1987.
All Lend A Heart volunteers donate their time, their pets and their talents; we have no paid staff.
We are unique in that we visit all of our programs as a group to provide effective mentoring and
guidance to our new teams. LAH does not certify individual teams to visit on their own. We provide
animal-assisted therapy (AAT) to approximately 25 local facilities on a monthly basis.
Lend A Heart membership requires dedication and commitment. Sharing the love of your cat,
rabbit or dog with others brings great happiness and joy. Both you and your pet will love it!
Note: By State and Federal Law, Therapy Teams do not have the same rights of ADA open
access as Service Dogs. They have no more privileges than the average family pet, and are
subject to the same laws and ordinances. Certified Lend A Heart Therapy Teams are permitted
at pre-contracted Lend A Heart facilities only. |
