New sign at Domino Service Dogs

Guest post from Joan from Lakewood

On August 28, 2024, there was a ceremony to celebrate the receiving of a grant to replace a sign at Domino Service Dogs. This much needed signage is possible because of a grant from the Alameda Corridor Business Improvement District (ACBID). ACBID has given twelve grants of up to $25,000 to businesses in the corridor for improving their outward appearance.

Domino Service Dogs is a non-profit which trains one on one with owners and their dogs for various services like medical response dogs and floor retrieval dogs for wheelchair users. Rachel Griffin and Clare Johnson were there to represent ACBID. Together with Amy Gordon, media member for Domino, and Barb Henry, they turned dirt with gold shovels to symbolize the start of the project to replace the sign that had been previously struck by a car. Cake followed the ceremony. The grant money had become available to ACBID by a $300,000 rollover from another special district that had sunset this year.

ACBID has some $5,000 grants available for businesses to upgrade their security systems. For more information see the website alamedaconnects.org. The ACBID has regular meetings the first Wednesday at 7:30am.

Domino Service Dogs (DSD) is located at 6505 W Alameda Ave UNIT 102, Lakewood, CO 80226 and their website is dominoservicedogs.com.
