Sponsors Information
Welcome to
 
 
                  On Wednesday, May 8, at 11am, on the front lawn of 4956 Old Summer Rd, Memphis, TN.  the BellSouth Pioneers will present a $3,000 check to Search Dogs South. This non-profit, United Way supported organization, is the Mid-South's rapid response team in the event of missing person events large or small.
                 The Pioneers sold hundreds of patriotic t-shirts following the Sept 11 attacks. All proceeds were pledged to support an unspecified relief type group.  After reviewing local options, Search Dogs South was selected.
              One of the additional aspects of the BellSouth Pioneers sponsorship is the availability of stuffed animal collectibles.  Search Dogs South instituted a "Furry Friends" program with these stuffed animals for lost children, when found, and also for nursing home residents and  children's hospitals with our pet therapy programs.
 
               The BellSouth Pioneers will  also be providing special bandannas which SDS will distribute to children for making scent articles to present to the dogs in case the children should ever become lost or missing.  This is part of our educational program for schools, libraries, churches and Scouts.
