UK ANNUAL RECEPTION FUNDS

In November we were delighted and proud to host Benzi Elkin with his PTSD service dog Lugo and our Senior Trainer Yariv Melamed, at our best-ever attended Annual Reception.

“When I was at my lowest, Lugo brought me back to life,” said Benzi.

He openly shared the impact that his post-traumatic stress disorder had on his life – how it affected his personal relationships, his inability to work, to be in crowded spaces, even in traffic – it was all too much.

But now, eight months after being partnered with Lugo, he has a reason and a responsibility to get out of bed every morning. Lugo is there to help him calm down, sleep better, feel more confident to face the world and be a better husband, father and grandfather.
