Why are we hosting #GivingBarkThursday?
#GivingBarkthursday is a day for the Guide Dog Foundation Community to come together to raise awareness of the life changing impact a guide dog can have on an individual who is blind or has low vision.
Together we can create a tremendous amount of impact through collective gifts – big and small.
Unite as a community with other donors and help those who are blind or visually impaired live without boundaries.
