Pet Project For Sherman & Tingle
• The Sherman & Tingle Show on Hubbard Radio Classic Rock WDRV (97.1 The Drive)/Chicago recently celebrated the overwhelming success of their “Give a Vet a Pet” campaign.
The Sherman & Tingle Show, in partnership with the 1Pet1Vet charitable organization (“Saving Veterans One Dog At A Time”) set out to raise enough money in one week to provide a service dog to one local veteran who is suffering from PTSD. The costs associated with providing that one service dog are $15,000. We are pleased to report that, with all monetary donations now confirmed, The Sherman & Tingle Show has officially raised $60,000— enough to pair fourservice dogs with veterans who are in desperate need of the positive effects, emotional support and companionship these dogs provide.
Commenting on this achievement, hosts Brian Sherman and Steve Tingle said, “We are perpetually committed to serving the Chicago Community. It’s an honor to be entrusted with a megaphone as influential as The Drive’s to advance worthy causes like this one. We’re eager to lead the next charge to benefit pets and veterans throughout Chicagoland.”
