We rely on our amazing volunteers to help with many aspects of our guide and service dog operations. Volunteers are the lifeblood of any not-for-profit organization, and without the dedication, commitment, and support of these giving individuals, the Guide Dog Foundation could not accomplish our mission. Last year, our volunteers donated more than 4.5 million hours of their time to help us serve people with disabilities.

Our volunteer family includes puppy raisers, individuals who act as advisers on our board of directors, work in our kennels, and host events to raise money for our programs. They help out in the office or transport puppies and adult dogs. They also go on speaking engagements and lead tours, help serve meals when class is in session, and socialize with students during free time.

Systemic Change Gap Analysis: Systemic change is a toolset for thinking about impact. CrowdDoing (www.advancesocialinnovation.org/crowddoing) is a collaborative effort that aims to scale social innovations towards systemic change goals such that Sustainable Development Goals become achievable. If you haven't heard of systemic innovation, Nesta in the UK held a discussion of it (https://www.nesta.org.uk/publications/systemic-innovation-discussion-series). Our impact potential analysis team looks at the gap between a scenario in which a social innovation plays a meaningful modest role in social innovation and the potential for that social innovation under certain scenarios to play a transformative role in social challenges. Social innovation gap analysis is a pre-cursor to Systemic Change Gap Analysis along with Systemic Change Asset Mapping. Our volunteers collaborate in teams with project managers and human resource business partners virtually across time zones and countries.
