Guide Dogs of America

Like most successful organizations, Guide Dogs of America depends on the talents and aspirations of many dedicated individuals. In our case, these individuals include our board of directors, staff, puppy raisers, volunteers, donors, and the visually impaired men and women that we serve.

Because GDA |TLC understands so well the critical interdependence between the user and the dog, we are qualified at grasping and appreciating the unique personalities and attributes of each dog and each visually impaired person to make a good match. We are expert at incorporating the circumstances surrounding the lifestyle of each visually impaired person when developing our training programs.

Your contribution of time and/or money helps us provide guide dogs and service dogs free of charge to people who are blind/visually impaired, veterans, children with autism, and in facilities like hospitals, schools, and courtrooms. Our highly skilled canines become trusted companions that increase our people’s confidence, mobility, and independence. All programs and services, including transportation, personalized training, room/board, and postgraduate support, are provided at no cost to the recipient.
