Goal
ROM Classmates, this page has been set up to coordinate fundraising to sponsor a companion/service dog in honor of Jon Tumilson.
At our last gathering, Jimmy shared with us the story of his best friend Jon and told us about this picture of the funeral with Jon's dog Hawkeye laying by his side.
Jon Tumilson was a Navy SEAL. He was killed on August 6, 2011, when his helicopter was shot down killing all 30 US service members on board, including 17 SEALs.
In his memory, we are raising money to provide a dog to another veteran through our support of the Guardian Revival. This dog will be raised, trained, and named in honor of Jon.
Guardian Revival is a New York State 501(c)(3) Not-for-Profit organization chartered to provide opportunities, resources, and support at no cost to our active and veteran Guardians so that they can revive, protect, and preserve their mental health & wellbeing.
Boots & Paws provides veterans and first responders in need with service and companion dogs. Dogs are awarded along with a care package, which includes food, veterinary coverage, and pet insurance for a year, microchipping, professional training sessions, pet essentials, and travel costs for the recipient.
