A special Request from Hyogo Guide Dogs for the Blind Association With a guide dog partner at his or her side, a blind person can walk without hesitation through the most unfamiliar of territory. However, it requires about 2 million yen to raise and train each guide dog. For most people, this is a difficult amount of money to raise. The H.G.D.A., a non-profit charitable corporation, raises and trains guide dogs, which are placed with sight impaired citizens. Over 43 years have passed since the first guide dog was raised in Japan.
Japan has very few active guide dogs.
We are a citizen organized non-profit charitable organization, and we need your support.
