Thanks for visiting my WAGATHON page! If you know me, you'll also know this is unusual for me, but this is a special cause. As of this month, I have worked at Guiding Eyes for 23 years. I've worn many hats, but have settled into my position as Web Content Developer on the Digital Marketing Team.
I have been privileged to get to know the people who come to us for their guide dogs, and hearing of the impact we and our dogs have made on their lives is pretty incredible. A 1st time guide dog user recently told us: "In our first walk there was an overwhelming sensation of joy, freedom, and independence, all rolled into one." And there you have it folks.
I'm on board member, Eli Manning's team. Click here to find his great kickoff message about Wagathon. My unofficial mascot is my "niece" Whitney, a GEB released dog & spunky long haired German Shepherd. She says thanks for your support! 😎

P.S. Here is the more official info:
The WAGATHON is a cumulative marathon that you and your dog can do anywhere, at your own pace throughout the month of September. The goal is to hit 26.2 miles before September 30th – all while raising critical funds to support Guiding Eyes for the Blind’s mission to provide guide dogs to people with vision loss. It’s an opportunity for people and dogs alike to stay active and do good.
Guiding Eyes for the Blind changes lives by connecting amazing people with extraordinary dogs. For individuals who are blind or visually impaired, a Guiding Eyes dog means freedom, confidence, and the opportunity to experience all of life's adventures - big and small. From Home Training to Specialized Training to Running Guides and more, Guiding Eyes' pioneering programs are individualized to each student. Together, these dogs are paired with just the right student - and both their lives are forever changed. You can be a part of this life-changing mission by making a donation today!
