My Nonprofit Reviews

My husband and I have been volunteer puppy raisers for Southeastern Guide Dogs, Inc. in Palmetto, FL since 2010. We are raising our second puppy to become a guide dog for the visually impaired. Being involved in this organization has filled our hearts with joy and purpose. It is an endeavor that not only has changed our lives but one in which holds the promise to change the lives of the visually impaired. SEGDi is a top notch organization. Everyone we have met from puppy raisers, area coordinators, trainers, to the many volunteers on campus that answer the phones, walk the dogs, give tours, etc. are professional and have the same goal in mind. They are all focused on supplying the best possible service dogs to those who really need them. SEGDi supplies service dogs free of charge and is a non profit organization that is entirely supported by private donations and volunteer labor. They place guide dogs for visually impaired, companion dogs for veterans with PTSD, as well as companion dogs for underage youth, ambassador dogs for VA Hospitals, and are linked in to alternate careers in law enforcement in the event a dog cannot be placed in their program. They breed and raise their own puppies with 200-250 pups in their program per year. The puppy raising community spans across 7 states with satelite groups located throughout the southern and eastern USA. We are located in Angketon, Texas.
