Why the GMC Corvette Set Supports
Leader Dogs for the Blind

GMC Corvette Set proudly supports Leader Dogs for the Blind, an organization that empowers low-vision, blind, and blind/deaf individuals with lifelong skills for safe and independent daily travel. Since its founding in 1939 by three Detroit Area Lions Club members, Leader Dogs for the Blind has successfully graduated over 17,500 guide dog teams, with more than 1,080 active teams across America today.

Their comprehensive programs include a free 21-day residential guide-dog training program that is personalized to match each client with a dog that fits their lifestyle, pace, and physical size. Additionally, their Orientation and Mobility (O&M) program provides individuals with the skills needed to travel safely using a white cane and a Teen Summer Camp for youths from ages 16 to 17 who are legally blind. All services are offered at no cost to clients.

Leader Dogs for the Blind's mission aligns with our values of freedom, mobility, and confidence. By supporting their work, we aim to help individuals gain independence through guide dog training and orientation services. Just as a Corvette represents power and precision, a Leader Dog provides guidance and trust. Together, we are helping open new roads for those navigating the world without sight.

GMC Corvette Set has supported Leader Dogs for the Blind since 1982 and has raised over $350,000 in financial support.

Leader Dogs for the Blind is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization privately funded by individuals, corporations, foundation grants and service organizations like the Lions clubs who still donate $2 million+ each year. Leader Dog does not receive State or Federal funding, nor do they receive insurance payments.
