Britnee Kinard

Britnee Kinard

Britnee Kinard, founder and CEO of SD Gunner Fund graduated from MTSU in 2005 with a degree in recording industry business. Britnee left her high-profile career in business, to become a full-time caregiver to her husband, Hamilton Kinard, after he suffered life-altering injuries while serving our country in Operation Iraqi Freedom.

The Kinard family knew Hamilton could benefit from a service dog, but the process of receiving one was a grueling and expensive 18-month ordeal. The stress of the experience – coupled with the tremendous benefits Hamilton’s service dog, Gunner, provided – drove the Kinards to establish SD Gunner Fund to help others. Since SD Gunner Fund’s founding, the organization has served over 450 veterans, first responders, and exceptional children and provided more than 50,000 hours of service dog training.
