This September, GEB@IC is joining together to complete the Wagathon Challenge while raising critical funds to help support Guiding Eyes for the Blind- a nonprofit organization that breeds, raises, trains, and places highly trained guide dogs free of charge to people with vision loss across the country. Guiding Eyes relies on donations to provide their students with guide dogs that will change their handlers' lives and increase their independence as they take on the world together.

GEB@IC is a club at Ithaca College, located in Ithaca, NY, comprised of undergraduate and graduate students who have a love and passion for Guiding Eyes for the Blind and its mission. Our club is an offshoot of the Guiding Eyes Fingerlakes Region and consists of general body members, puppy sitters, and puppy raisers. We aim to support Guiding Eyes and its students by raising confident and successful future guide dogs, as well as educating the community about Guiding Eyes and guide dogs, within our local community and beyond.

Join us as we walk with a purpose this September to support Guiding Eyes! For friends local to Ithaca, we will be hosting in-person pack walks to complete our miles together. Follow along on our Instagram (@guidingeyes_ic) throughout September as we work to reach our walking and fundraising goals. Not able to join our walks? Consider donating or sharing our team page to help us! Any and all are welcome, regardless of whether you have a previous connection with GEB@IC or not. Current students, club members, alumni, family, friends, and supporters- join us as we take on the Wagathon!

Paws and Kisses,
GEB@IC🐾
