Review for Southeastern Guide Dogs, Inc. DBA Dogs Inc, Palmetto, FL, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I have been involved with Southeastern for more than a decade, beginning as a "puppy raiser" and now as a member of the Board of Directors. My time is scarce -- and the fact that I am connected with a Florida entity although I live in Texas I believe speaks to how much I value the work that SEGD does, and how effective they are in addressing the independence of the visually impaired. This is a charity that doesn't have a lot of money, but what they do have is the almost boundless enthusiasm of volunteers and a core group of staff that is extremely good at what they do. There is absolutely nothing as inspiring as hearing the story of someone who is visually disabled and has really been given their freedom back through the use of a guide dog. Great work being done by SEGD in Florida.
