Info

The Israel Guide Dog Center for the Blind is a registered non-profit organization supported almost entirely by donations and bequests from individuals, and by foundations, companies and organizations "with vision" that believe in our humanitarian work. Their assistance allows us to continue and develop our work, and provide blind Israelis with a chance to enjoy freedom, safe mobility, and independence. Israel has over 20,000 registered blind people, although unofficial estimates place this figure much higher. Of these, about 200 are guide dog assisted, but this number is growing steadily as the number of graduates from the Center increases annually.
