Greetings NFB Guide Dog Fans, Are you a guide dog handler? do you know someone who is a guide dog handler? Or, do you just love dogs? And, do you want to help protect the rights of guide dogs and their handlers to travel safely? If you answered yes to any of these questions, read on to learn how you can support the California Association of Guide dog Users, (CAGDU). CAGDU members are working hard to strengthen existing California laws designed to ensure that guide dog teams can travel safely without concern for possible denial of access to public places. CAGDU also provides education to the public regarding how guide dog teams work together as well as the do's and don'ts when interacting with a guide dog team. We also provide scholarships to help guide dog teams attend state and national NFB conventions. You can help CAGDU simply by purchasing yummy Terri Lynn nuts, snack mixes or sweets. With the holidays right around the corner, you can shop for gifts while you support CAGDU's work. Heck, who doesn't need snacks for the holidays? You can use the link to our on line Terri Lynn store below to shop. For each order placed through our store, CAGDU will receive 20% of the profits Generated by that sale. For your convenience, I'm including a few item descriptions below just to give you a hint of what Terri Lynn has to offer. There's no time to lose. So, happy shopping!
