The Camas Lions are sponsoring a puppy named JoJo for Leader Dogs for the Blind. The puppy will undergo training from volunteers for a year, prior to being provided to Leader Dogs for final training and pairing with a client.
Leader Dogs for the Blind’s mission is to empower people who are blind or visually impaired with lifelong skills for safe and independent daily travel.
At Leader Dogs for the Blind they believe that everyone deserves a life of independence and mobility. All of their services are provided free of charge to their clients, including travel in the U.S. and Canada, room and board, equipment and training. This means that no one is excluded from living their most fulfilling life due to lack of funds.
LeaderDogs are 100 percent philanthropically funded by individual donors, Lions clubs, corporate partners and foundations. Simply put, They could not provide over one million days of independence each year without the immense generosity of their supporters.
Their programs are designed to provide Their clients with the tools and training to reintroduce them to a life of confidence, safety and independence. Through their full-range of programs — Guide Dog, Orientation & Mobility and Teen Summer Camp — they meet the mobility needs of their clients at every stage of their lives.
