When you're a teenager, summer should be about spending time 
outside, making new friends, hanging with old friends and having 
new experiences.  That is exactly what happened at Leader Dog's 
week-long Summer Experience program for kids age 16 and 17.

But it doesn't stop there-throughout the week the kids 
strengthened their independence by learning simple, practical 
ways to develop their leadership skills by building stronger 
relationships, having a can-do attitude and focusing on having 
fun.

The impact this program has on the kids is amazing.  Who says 
blind kids can't climb walls? Not us.  Not them.  See for 
yourself<https://community.leaderdog.org/page.redir?target=http%3
a%2f%2fbit.ly%2fn2t5nK&srcid=4015&srctid=1&erid=121469>.

We hope to provide this experience to even more kids next summer.  
Like all our programs, the Summer Experience is provided free to 
all participants.  So we need your financial support to make this 
happen.

Summer Experience that they'll remember for the rest of their 
lives!

Given the chance, these kids can climb walls-and go all the way 
to the top!
