Guide Dogs for the Blind Finds its Way to Organisational Efficiency with NetSuite

Founded in 1942 as a way to help wounded veterans returning from WWII, Guide Dogs for the Blind has since evolved into an organisation that trains roughly 300 guide dog teams per year and now counts 2,200 active teams across the U.S. and Canada. When a new CFO came aboard, she quickly realised the need to replace an antiquated accounting system and manual, spreadsheet-based processes.

“With NetSuite, we can easily plan what donations are needed to accomplish program objectives and determine what direction to take to achieve these goals. We are in a better position to explore 'what if' scenarios.” M. Cathy Martin, Treasurer & CFO, Guide Dogs for the Blind
