MENLO PARK, Calif -- Latitude by Genesys announced a significant donation to Dogs Inc (formerly Southeastern Guide Dogs Inc), reinforcing their commitment to supporting organizations that provide essential services to those in need. The contribution comes at a crucial time when the demand for guide dogs and related services is on the rise, highlighting the importance of collective support from the community.
This donation was inspired by one of Latitude’s long-standing industry friends, Jack Brown. Jack Brown, President of Gulf Coast Collection Bureau, Inc., is a recipient of one of the animals. Mr. Brown’s lab, Leo, was one of the few animals who had left the program for being too outgoing, leading to Leo’s adoption.
"Latitude by Genesys is proud to support Dogs Inc and their invaluable mission," said Cris Bjelajac, Senior Director of Business Operations at Latitude. "We recognize the tremendous impact these guide dogs and services have on the lives of visually impaired individuals, veterans, and children. Our commitment to supporting this organization is about giving back to the community and making a meaningful difference in the lives of those who rely on these incredible animals."
