Create a Fundraising Page

Honor a loved one, celebrate a special event, or simply show your support for our mission. Creating a fundraising page is quick and easy. Just register, customize your page, and start sharing.
Your efforts help people who rely on services like our guide dog program, orientation & mobility, and teen programs.
Fundraise at School
Hosting a school fundraiser is a fun and educational way to support Leader Dogs for the Blind. Try activities like:
- Penny Wars between classrooms
- Bake sales or snack stands
- Symbolically sponsor a Future Leader Dog
These efforts help fund programs that empower blind and low vision adults and teens to travel safely and independently with services at no cost to them.
Host an Event
Whether you’re organizing a community gathering, corporate function, or club event, adding a fundraising component is a powerful way to give back. From casual jeans day at the office and golf outings to yoga classes or symbolically sponsoring a Future Leader Dog – there are endless ways to incorporate giving into your event.
