LYP is thrilled to introduce Phoenix Assistance Dogs (PAD) as our 2025 Charity of the Year!
We are inspired by the incredible work PAD does to support the community and are proud to announce that 50% of all charitable donations received by LYP in 2025 will go directly to PAD. This is a 100% volunteer-run organization with zero paid staff, founded by Linzey Zoccola, who has Spinal Muscular Atrophy.
About Phoenix Assistance Dogs (PAD):
Founded in 2009 (EIN: 27-1914137), PAD's mission is to locate and train puppies to become assistance dogs for individuals living with a broad range of disabilities who are unable to train their own assistance dogs. These highly trained assistance dogs provide greater independence and improve the quality of life for those living with disabilities. PAD also assists individuals in finding and training their own assistance dogs if they prefer to train their own dog.
