Year:

Pamela is on a mission to unleash the healing power of therapy dogs—because let’s face it, dogs make everything better. As the founder of Thank God for Dogs, she advocates for making therapy dog programs a priority, pivotal and fully funded in hospitals, universities, recovery centers, and beyond. Before transitioning to the nonprofit world, Pamela spent 20 years in marketing and corporate leadership and a decade as a women’s empowerment coach. She’s lived in New Zealand, embraces adventure, and believes the best therapy often comes with fur, four legs, and a cold wet nose.
