Why do I do Tie-Dye, it isn't just because I love it?

First of all I do Tie-Dye because I enjoy being able to using my creativity in such a groovy way. I am also doing Tie-dye to help raise funds for my next autism/diabetic service dog. My first amazing autism service dog Jordan (shown in the picture below) passed away September 2019. He is so missed, always loved, and forever in my heart, RIP Jordan a job well done. Life is not easy having autism and it is a struggle everyday. However Jordan made my life easier in so many ways from sleeping, to going out in public, dealing with being overwhelmed, and in so many others ways. Jordan came into my life in July of 2012 and my life was forever changed for the better in so many ways. But it came with a cost, my parents Mary and Joshua Jones, help to raise the money for Jordan at a cost of $15,000 for all the training needed, Jordan was priceless. My next service dog will costs $25,000 to raise for all the training needed to get him/her in service as any autism/diabetic service dog. Jordan was never trained as a diabetic service dog because I was diagnosed as a diabetic 6 months after I had him in service, however at times he alerted me to high or low sugar numbers. I have attached the story that was done well Jordan was still with us, you can see the unbreakable bound we had. Yes we are also raising funds for my Dad, Josh, who is a diabetic to get his first service dog. So every purchase made for any groovy tie-dye item from me a portion of that goes to help me get my next angel in service for me. I love doing tie-dye and the fact that it is also helping a good cause, is awesome! Watch the story, your heart will melt! https://www.fox19.com/2019/07/19/area-family-hopes-raise-buy-new-service-dogs/?fbclid=IwAR0cH28m8beXfxlgjJdt4Iznm-Y7ZU2D4gpM_jDTOPd6Eh3nT8JrtBxcJnE
