Guide Dogs of America Help Machinists Hit the Fairway

Guide Dogs of America brings service dogs to blind and visually impaired men and women in the US and Canada, as well as providing training on their proper use and care. GDA depends on donor support for the funding needed to continue this important work. For years, IAM141 members have supported Guide Dogs of America through awareness campaigns and fundraising efforts like the GDA Golf Tournament held this week at Local 1886 in Denver. This year’s annual golf tournament was a great success, and enjoyed by everyone… but most especially by the guide dogs themselves, who helped the golfers complete the challenging 18 holes at Broadlands Golf Course in Broomfield, Colorado. A big THANK YOU to everyone who participated, donated and made the event a success.
