Give For Good Louisville – Donate to WAGS Today!
Give for Good is an annual day of online giving that empowers local nonprofits by connecting them with the Louisville, KY community to raise crucial funds. It’s a great opportunity for us to rally together and support the causes that mean the most to us. Of course, for us at Mirazon, the power of a canine friend can’t be understated.
By donating to WAGS, you’ll help bring comfort to those who need it most through therapy and support animals. Every dollar you give helps change lives! It’s super easy—just visit Give For Good Louisville, and let’s make a difference together.
Mirazon is thrilled to share the exciting news of our newfound partnership with WAGS (Wonderful Animals Giving Support), a Louisville-based pet therapy non-profit organization committed to enhancing health, independence, and overall quality of life.
Mirazon’s mission is to provide people with technology that makes them successful at work, and while at first glance a dog doesn’t seem to fit in this equation – it actually does.
We firmly believe in the profound impact that the companionship of a pet, particularly dogs, has on our well-being – both personally and professionally.
Our team recognizes the positive influence that pets can have on various aspects of our lives, including our demeanor, activity levels, and relationships, even within the workplace. We see the work that WAGS is doing in our community, improving experiences in schools, workplaces, and healing environments, and we want to support that kind of technology too (read about the top five benefits of the human-animal bond here).
Our Partnership With WAGS
Our journey with WAGS began with our very own “CFO” – Chief Furry Officer – Ferdinand, whose human is Mirazon’s CEO, Karen Albers. Karen wanted a loving companion and found it in her previous Leonberger rescue. So, when it was time for a new dog, she brought baby Ferdinand home – quickly realizing she’d have to take him to work with her to care for a puppy of his age – and he immediately became a member of the Mirazon team. From warmly greeting vendors and clients to providing comforting hugs during stressful moments, Ferdinand exemplified the positive impact a furry friend can have on the workplace. When he was old enough, Karen realized Ferdinand would be a great therapy dog, and he quickly became part of WAGS’s fleet of volunteers.
Mirazon has a dog friendly office, and we cherish our four-legged coworkers. You can meet more of them on our Meet the Team page.
Firsthand, we’ve seen the joy that dogs like Ferdinand have brought to our local institutions, and we believe deeply in the mission of WAGS. Mirazon is actively involved in supporting the organization’s IT needs, fundraising initiatives, and the training of new furry volunteers.
Mirazon is proud to align with WAGS, recognizing the invaluable role of pet therapy in fostering a healthier, more connected community. See for yourself! Visit WAGS’s website and consider supporting their crucial mission.
