About Greyhound Pets of America/Greater Orlando Chapter
Greyhound Pets of America/Greater Orlando is a non-profit corporation founded in 1996, as a chapter of the National Greyhound Pets of America organization. Our purpose is to find homes for ex-racing Greyhounds and to educate the public on the suitability and availability of Greyhounds as pets.
The GPA office, adoption kennel and gift shop are located in Longwood, Florida. Our programs depend on donations to accomplish our wonderful mission. All funds go to our programs and our organization is comprised solely of volunteers.
Due to the huge growth of GPA/GO, we reorganized in 2003 with a Board of Directors and Officers to handle the extensive responsibilities involved in running GPA/GO smoothly.
GPA/GO has a home of its own. Our Kennel houses
54 Greyhounds who are waiting for their forever, loving homes. Since its
incorporation, GPA/GO has had the opportunity to
place a few thousand Greyhounds through our Adoption Kennel.
Our goal is to find a home for every single retired racing Greyhound that needs one, and we need your help! Volunteers are always needed, sponsors are needed for our dogs, and supplies are also needed for the office and kennel.
For $120.00 per year ($10.00 per month), you can sponsor one of our kennel cuties. Please go to our available Greys page and click on the sponsor link. By pledging just $10.00, you will help us feed and take care of these retired racers while they wait for their forever homes.
Sponsorship Program: Thanks to all who sponsor a Greyhound that is in our care. For a donation of $10 / month you can help pave the way to a forever home for one of these Greyt animals.
