​Our Founder

Craig J. Mohnacky, DVM, has provided veterinary care for 40 years in a county that’s home to nearly 250,000 veterans (many disabled) and more than 100,000 active service members. He has always supported military families. He formalized his philanthropic platform in 2013 when he launched the Helping Paws Foundation. Now, he and his team proudly give back to those who give so much, by keeping military families united with their beloved pets. By establishing trusting relationships and partnerships within our community, Helping Paws has become an essential resource in support of our fine military families.
