D'Ambrosio Eye Care donates to The Seeing Eye

Employees and patients of D'Ambrosio Eye Care raised over $5,000 for The Seeing Eye® of Morristown, NJ last fall.  The Seeing Eye® breeds and trains dogs for their guide-dog program.  The donation from D'Ambrosio Eye Care came via a fall festival fundraiser, book and bake sales, raffles and generous donations.  The fall festival was made possible through the generosity of donations from many local businesses and vendors. 

The cost to breed, raise and train each puppy is $50,000.  Our $5,000 donation allowed us to select the name "SPECS" for a yellow Labrador Retreiver in honor of a long-time employee whose pet with the same name had recently died.

This is "our" puppy, "SPECS"...
