    Future Guide Dogs on the puppy cam!
    Kate L.

    Over twenty years after I raised a puppy for GDB as a teen, I finally made it to the campus for a visit--along with my sister, husband, kids, and mother-in-law. Regularly scheduled tours run Mondays through Saturdays for groups of up to seven. The tour itself was a little dry but I think it depends a lot on the volunteer docent. The campus is beautiful and immaculate inside and out, and we enjoyed seeing the facilities for both students and dogs. GGB really is a first rate organization making an incredible difference in people's' lives--they are doing good in the world. We're looking forward to returning for another visit when the new puppy training center is open.

    I'm opening up and showing you deep inside me what's got my heart on my bucket list. Praying to just end up in this area doing just this. It was a big sign to me when I just happened to be driving by doing something else when I ran into their actual location. Not just that, but when my time freed up, they just happened to be guiding tours! Breathtaking! Personally, I love matchmaking and these guys match guide dogs to the right person! For a whole week everyone gets to stay and pair up together. The chefs personally customize every dish to each client's diet during their stay. I don't know how I'm not going to end up with an entire house filled with Labradors God help me. I will return to attend a puppy graduation. They are open and quite a to-do so I've heard. 5 stars This place is not government funded Give these guys 10 stars!

    Guide dogs for the blind is the best organization ever. They have a lovely staff. Everyone's very kind and welcoming. The dogs there are amazingly trained. They definitely have a great campus full of adorable puppies.

    Time I was here I was out and about. Then I thought to myself let us stop by, perhaps they could use some volunteets here. This also happens to be the National headquarters of Guide dogs for the blind. So I did wander in and ask about volunteering. They have volunteer orientation classes that one needs to attend first. The classes get really packed. If I had stayed in the area I most likely would have volunteered, but because I was doing a program that sucked and wasn't for me I wasn't involved. One thing that I had to do was go to the gift shop and buy an item. You all will see a picture of this bag. All will like the bag.

    The perfect place to either: 1 - donate nice women's clothing (as like-new as possible) to be…read morescored buy women who need something nicer than they are in a position to buy and might need for a job interview, etc., Or: 2 - if you need some clothing to look the way you'd like to be seen for that special opportunity, be sure to stop by and check out Bloom. It won't be a waste of your time. Drop off what is nice but not needed so that someone who really needs it can have it! Note the specific open hours and donations accepted times on their website. Tip re. Dropping off items: Donations are received at the rear of the building, down the immediately adjacent driveway. Back down it if you can. It's difficult to turn a car around at the bottom!

    As you may know if you follow my reviews on Thrift stores, I am a reseller, so please remember that…read moreall my reviews of thrift stores are given from that perspective, which may differ from the ordinary shoppers perspective. Marin is the Mecca if you are either an ordinary shopper or a reseller in the high-end resale market this is a fabulous cause as well. They dress people who are looking for a new start and help them get professional clothes to go to interviews and such. The donations for the store come from very nice and wealthy donors in San Francisco and other areas of Marin County. The prices here are amazing. I mostly shop for myself but occasionally find something well enough price that I could resell it. They have a five dollar rack where they put everything that hasn't sold in two months. I found some amazing things on that rack today. I also bought myself some lovely things spent more than five dollars of course but not anywhere near the actual value of these designer pieces if you are anywhere near this place, you must stop by and support this wonderful cause.
