At Suncoast Financial, we’re committed to supporting the heroes who protect us — both two-legged and four-legged. That’s why we proudly stand behind Project K-9 Hero, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to ensuring that retired Police K-9s and Military Working Dogs receive the care and support they deserve after their service.
Project K-9 Hero provides funding for lifesaving medical care, rehabilitation and rehoming services, and advocacy for these often-overlooked Heroes. After years of service on the front lines, many of these dogs face significant health challenges. Unfortunately, government funding doesn’t always cover their care post-retirement, leaving Handlers and families to manage the cost alone.
Suncoast Financial’s support ensures these courageous animals get the second chance they’ve earned. From funding emergency surgeries to helping with chronic care, Project K-9 Hero bridges the gap for working dogs who have spent their lives protecting others. Through their Rehabilitation & Rehoming Facility in Whitwell, TN, they provide second chances for dogs who would have otherwise been euthanized.
We are honored to partner with an organization that not only recognizes the value of these animals but fights to give them the dignified retirement they deserve. The stories of these K-9s are powerful, and their need for care is real.
Whether for retired K-9s injured in the field or those simply aging out of service, the support provided by Project K-9 Hero directly improves quality of life. Every donation contributes to a healthier, more comfortable future for these dogs.
Founded by a U.S. Army Veteran, who was also a Police K-9 Handler and Federal Government K-9 Instructor, the organization is rooted in firsthand experience, and that personal passion shows in every initiative.
