Sometime in 1995,
after seeing a story called "Racing for their Lives," about the plight of
the racing GreyHound on a National Geographic special, six
people from the community gathered around a kitchen table
and started Long Island GreyHound Transfer.
Since that time, we have been featured in various
news articles, Martha Stewart, the Mets, Long Island Ducks, and many
others. We attend several festivals and activities throughout the year to
alert the public about the plight of the GreyHound. We have rescued
over nine hundred GreyHounds since our beginning. We still have a long way to
go. Our goal right now is to save enough money to have our own washing and
holding facility. We always need donations because of
operational costs. Contributions to L.I.G.H.T. are tax deductible.
