Give a major gift

Philanthropic supporters, trusts and foundations are at the heart of the specialist, personalised services we offer to people with physical disabilities.

It takes time, care, and expert training to create a partnership. From a puppy learning core skills to an assistance dog being matched with a partner – major gifts power every step of the journey.

Canine Partners receives no government funding, so we rely on generous donations to breed, train, and support our expert assistance dogs.

Partnerships give disabled people the freedom to live life their own way. You can join us in that mission and see the difference your gift makes, in person.

From the moment you get in touch, you will have a personal point of contact in our team, dedicated to creating long-lasting, tailored relationships with supporters. They will work closely with you to understand your motivations for making a major donation. Together, you can find the most fitting home for your gift, whether that’s supporting a specific project or allowing us to use your donation where it’s needed most. They can also talk through your options including making a cash gift, donating shares via ShareGift, or leaving a gift in your Will.

We will keep you updated on the projects you’re supporting, so you can be confident your gift is making a meaningful difference. There are many ways you can choose to stay in touch and feel connected to our work. It could be through regular reports, exclusive events or special site visits where you meet our expertly trained dogs, and see the difference you’re making first-hand.
