Sponsor a puppy at School
Every
life-changing guide dog starts off as a tiny, playful puppy and now your
class can follow our class of guide dog puppies in training.
It’s fun and rewarding
- Your school will have the unique opportunity to sponsor a class of
three real guide dog puppies, getting ‘Pupdates’ on their progress. With
each Pupdate you’ll receive teaching resources and class activity sheets
covering a range of topics: from how guide dogs train to what it’s like
to be visually impaired, along with take home freebies for every child.
Your
school can help us transform the lives of blind and partially sighted
people. Around 180,000 blind and partially sighted people in the UK
never leave home alone. So we need your help to create more
life-changing guide dog partnerships. The guide dog service receives no
government funding. By sponsoring a class of guide dog puppies your
school can help us to continue to provide and grow the guide dog
service.
How can a school get involved?
To get
involved, raise £300 for Guide Dogs. Once you’ve reached your target
you’ll start your amazing journey with your very own class of pups -
sharing every step of their adventure as they grow from tiny puppies
into responsible guide dogs. It’s the next best thing to being right
there.
Here’s what you get
Certificate, regular ‘Pupdates’, an exclusive calendar, photos, lesson
plans, activity sheets, a wall chart and poster, and take-home gifts for
your class. You can also view photos of your sponsored puppies online
at www.sponsorapuppy.org.uk
We’ve
made a lifetime promise to provide every guide dog owner and any new
guide dog owner with a guide dog for as long as they need one.
With so many costs involved in creating each partnership – food, vet
bills, intensive training – it’s a big promise. But it’s one that can
change a life forever.
With
the help of your class and school, it’s a promise we can keep.
