Guiding Eyes for the Blind encourages individuals interested in supporting our mission at either our Patterson, NY, or Yorktown Heights*, NY, campuses to submit a volunteer application.

We still encourage interested individuals to submit an application; however, there may be a delay in communication from a staff member regarding next steps.
