Tampa St. Petersburg Polk County Sarasota Lakewood Ranch Bradenton Fort Myers Orlando Tri-County At Southeastern Guide Dogs, Walkathon represents our largest fundraiser of the year! Proceeds raised through Walkathon help us raise, train and match our amazing dogs with visually impaired students and veterans living with posttraumatic stress disorder. Their lives are transformed as they embark on a new journey alongside their faithful four legged companion and experience new levels of independence and freedom. Walkathon festivities include a fun walk for our two and fourlegged supporters, music, food, shopping, entertainment and much more! Your Walkathon sponsorship places you front and center amidst hundreds of potential clients and customers as they walk, visit sponsor booths, enjoy live entertainment and shop. You ll find plenty of positive exposure, community outreach and an opportunity to showcase your organization s corporate social responsibility initiatives as a caring and generous business with a heart for our community. Sponsorships are available at several levels, perfect for any budget and marketing plan. I sat at home for 12 years after I lost my vision. Then I got my first guide dog, Gayle. And my life began. When I got my dog, it opened my world back up. - Lori Ciceroni with guide dog Semper, Southeastern Guide Dogs Graduate
