MAKE A CASH DONATION
Your donation helps cover the costs of our puppy training program. This fund is also for miscellaneous fundraisers, campaigns and costs associated with our initiatives. Sometimes we draw funds from this account to  augment fundraising goals that fall short of the amount set.

We are currently raising a female golden/lab mix puppy named Encore (Cori) who was born on September 16, 2016. She is being trained as a service dog, therapy dog, demo dog for our program, and whatever else her life purpose turns out to be. Your donations to this program will help fund her training and development. ​​

DONATE TO OUR WAVES OF EMPOWERMENT PROGRAM
Our Waves of Empowerment (WOE) program takes Ricochet's paws-on healing and pawing it forward initiatives to the next level. It’s about inspiring and empowering military with PTSD, kids with special needs and people with disabilities to help themselves by helping others. These are individuals that Ricochet has previously surfed or worked with, who are now volunteering to help the next wave of disabled surfers get on board with her!
