What We’re About

IMG_3472

Good Dog by Mopdog is a family fund that was founded by William and Cheryl Musial, and their two sons, Cole and Zach.

Read about each founder in their bios below.

When William was asked why he started this foundation, he said…

“Our family has always wanted to open a foundation that would give us and the company, Mopdog Creative + Strategy, the opportunity to help other people and organizations.

Leading by example is something we have continually strived to do, and in creating Good Dog, we found a way to show our two sons, employees and community, the true value of time, money and other things that we may not think about on a daily basis.

Good Dog also shines a light on how creative and marketing firms can make an invaluable impact on deserving organizations that cannot afford to create functional websites, flyers and postcards, all things which exist to help others in need. Good Dog allows our company to donate this type of work at no cost to the organization that truly needs it.”
