ISRAEL GUIDE DOG CENTER FOR THE BLIND
The mission of the Israel Guide Dog Center for the Blind is to improve the quality of life of visually impaired Israelis by providing them with independence, mobility and self confidence, as well as renewed self-esteem and companionship through the use of guide dogs. What we do: We breed, raise and train the guide dogs at our facility in Beit Oved, Israel, just south of Tel Aviv. When a blind Israeli requests our assistance, we transport them to our center, house and feed them for three weeks during training, and provide an additional week of training in their homes. We also provide follow-up care twice a year to make sure that the partnership is still working properly. This is all done AT NO COST TO THE BLIND! We are able to provide these services through the generosity of our donors – who have the vision to help those less fortunate. Our annual budget is just over $2.7 Million dollars, and as of December 2017, we had produced over 600 partnerships between Israelis who are blind or visually impaired and professionally trained guide dogs. Secondary Mission: In 2013 we added a secondary mission by providing Service Companions to people with Special Needs. While half of our dogs are selected for guide dog training, 50% fail to meet our exacting standards during evaluations, but these amazingly well trained dogs can still help people. In 2013 we formalized a program to repurpose these "career-change" dogs and provide them to blind children, autistic children, soldiers with PTSD or other adults with a variety of special needs. All of the dogs we produce go to loving homes and serve a purpose by helping people in need.
