OUR MISSION

OUR INSPIRATION
​
When Santa couldn't bring the Diabetic Alert Dog our 8 year old daughter Emma wanted, she took matters into her own hands, selling paintings and raising money on her own.
​
Her determination attracted a great deal of attention and when Newsday published a story about her efforts in the Sunday paper, her Christmas wish came true.
​
Emma was inspired and asked if she could keep selling paintings and surprise another child with a Diabetic Alert Dog.
​
And so Emma's Journey was to become something wonderful, a way for our family to give back and help others who's lives can be improved with the addition of a Diabetic Alert Dog.
