A non-profit group that supports veterans and children with disabilities, 4 Paws for Ability, was highlighted this morning during an uplifting segment on Monday’s “Fox & Friends” — so appropriate at this holiday time of year and of course all year round.
The group’s mission is to enrich the “lives of people with disabilities by placing life-changing service dogs worldwide,” as it explains on its website. One service dog at a time, the group also “envisions a world where people with disabilities can realize their full potential.”
Kelly Camm, development director, told cohost Ainsley Earhardt, “We’ve been around since 1998, and we serve children and veterans.” They’ve placed well over 1,500 dogs in total so far, she said.
This year alone, Camm also said on Monday, “we’ve placed well over 100” dogs with those who so badly need them and who so greatly cherish them.

“We’re trying to take the ‘dis’ out of disability as much as we can,” she also said. The group receives applications from all over.
In a tweet the group shared on Sunday, it announced its Dec. 13th appearance on “Fox & Friends.”
And on Monday morning, it also shared the following tweet:
