Quinn Howard has been partnered with his first Fidelco guide dog, “Yuri,” since early 2022. Quinn says, “Being part of my community is important. When Yuri and I are out together, people include me in the conversation.”It was community that led Quinn to Fidelco and sparked his interest in applying for a guide dog. At gatherings of the National Federation of the Blind, Quinn met Fidelco clients Jessica Beecham and James Brown and noticed their interactions with their guide dogs. As a lifelong white cane user, Quinn’s interest grew as he imagined the sense of independence and connection with others a guide dog could bring to his life.Quinn says before he received his guide dog, Yuri, “People avoided me when I was using my cane because they wanted to be careful and stay out of my way. These experiences pushed me toward my decision to apply for a Fidelco guide dog.” Quinn and Yuri now confidently walk and travel to meet with friends and family and for Quinn’s job in a busy metropolitan area.After graduating from college, Quinn was hired as a Vocational Counselor with the TennesseeDepartment of Human Services. He was promoted to his current position of Field Supervisor andis responsible for hiring and training counselors to connect people with vision loss with services that help them live with greater independence.

Throughout the month of November, you will have the opportunity to ditch your razors, grow the world's greatest beard or mustache, and show support for Connecticut cancer patients. If you aren't allowed to grow your facial hair, or if you can't, you can still support those who are becoming hairy and show your support for CT cancer patients. 100% of the money raised will be distributed to CT cancer patients and their caregivers in our state to assist with basic living expenses, such as rent, mortgage, utilities, and food.

Anyone can participate in No Shave CT - just register your department / company / organization as a team. Starting November 1, 2022, you can put that razor away! Participants can donate the money that they would have spent shaving in November and/or they can ask family, friends, and community members to support their efforts with a donation. There will be a contest for the best facial hair with GREAT prizes from Schick, and weekly prizes of autographed MLB baseballs awarded for the top 5 individual fundraisers! We also will be awarding prizes to the Top Fundraising Team and Top Individual Fundraiser. Prize and contest details will be e-mailed out to registered participants. You can't win if you're not registered - so be sure to sign up today!

Since 2017, No Shave CT has raised over $690,000! (AMAZING!) Our goal this year is to reach at least $500,000 in donations for No Shave CT- and EVERY DOLLAR will stay here in Connecticut, helping people who are bravely battling cancer.
