How we help
GuideDog Foundation
Fighting Local Hunger
GuideDog Foundation
A great organization in Smithtown that trains seeing-eye dogs and blind individuals to use them, it receives no government aid and relies on the Lions Clubs for much of it's support. We make special efforts to aid this magnificent cause. We are proud to have funded many guide dogs over the past 25 years.
Scholarships
