Every Gift Goes Twice as Far
Roo, Ditts and Loz are taking on a 30km challenge to support See Differently's Guide & Assistance Dogs program.
Thanks to our generous Matching Partner, every dollar donated before Hike for Hope will be doubled.
That means your gift can help twice as many puppies on their journey to becoming Guide Dogs for South Australians who are blind or Assistance Dogs for veterans living with PTSD.
A life changing program
Every Guide & Assistance Dog starts as a puppy with the potential to change a life. With expert trainers, dedicated volunteers and community support, these remarkable dogs learn the skills needed to guide people safely through daily life or support veterans experiencing PTSD. Your support helps fund the journey from puppy to partner, creating life-changing connections that provide confidence, independence and freedom for years to come. More than half the funding needed to raise and train these dogs comes from supporters like you.
Every Gift. Twice The Impact
$50 becomes $100
Help fund puppy enrichment and early learning
$100 becomes $200
Help a puppy take the next step towards becoming a life-changing Guide & Assistance Dog.
$250 becomes $500
Help prepare puppies for public access and real-world environments.
$500 becomes $1,000
Provide a complete First Steps Puppy Pack.
Why Your Support Matters
It takes nearly two years and more than $100,000 to transform a puppy into a life-changing Guide & Assistance Dog.
Your donation helps fund every stage of the journey, from puppy raising and specialised training through to matching a dog
with the person who needs them most.

Impact Stories
Meet Mattias
From isolated to independent
“For the first time ever, I feel safe and confident getting out of the house and doing things on my own. Pia has opened so many opportunities for me. She’s made it possible for me to go to Uni. She helps me get there and back safely on the tram. And she guides me around campus, down long, narrow corridors, so I can get to where I need to go without running into people or things.”
Mattias, 20, Talking about life with Guide Dog Pia
Meet Trevor
From loneliness to connection
“It took me a long time to get help for my PTSD after serving. I was lonely, isolated and barely surviving. With my first dog Sophie by my side, life opened up again. I travel with my wife Sue and I enjoy meeting and talking to people. I’ve started a new journey recently with my second dog Vogue. It’s taken some work to learn new skills and trust another dog, but it’s life changing being part of this program.”
Trevor, 80, Talking about life with Assistance Dog Vogue
Meet Nicole
From hesitation to confidence
"Jeda has made an enormous difference in my life. For the first time in 10 years, I can walk to my local café on my own, come into the city, meet friends, go bushwalking and travel independently. With Jeda by my side, I feel safer and more confident. She finds obstacles and safely guides me around them, lifting the mental exhaustion of constantly trying to stay safe. She has given me so much independence, companionship and freedom."
Nicole, 60, Talking about life with Guide Dog Jeda
