About the Delilah Foundation

The Delilah Foundation was born from the profound love and connection between Bonnie Formia and her first therapy dog, Delilah. Though Delilah is no longer with us, her gentle spirit continues to inspire a mission of compassion and healing. Delilah’s work as a therapy dog touched countless lives, offering comfort to those in need, and it was through this journey that Bonnie realized just how impactful these amazing animals can be.

Founded in Delilah’s memory, the Delilah Foundation is dedicated to supporting therapy dog teams across the United States. We understand that these teams play a vital role in bringing hope, joy, and healing to people from all walks of life—whether they are visiting hospitals, schools, veterans’ centers, or homes for the elderly. Our micro-grant program helps these teams overcome the financial barriers associated with providing their invaluable services, allowing them to focus on what matters most: reaching the hearts of those who need them the most.

Bonnie, a devoted animal lover, has made it her life’s mission to expand the reach of therapy dogs and raise awareness of the extraordinary miracles they can create. Through the Delilah Foundation, we strive to ensure that more lives can be touched by the paws of love and healing, one therapy dog at a time.
