Section 7210.6.

A person desiring to establish a licensed guide dog school in this state, whose plan of operation has been approved by the State Board of Guide Dogs for the Blind and who has furnished to the board satisfactory evidence of financial responsibility, may secure from such board a license to solicit funds for the establishment of a guide dog training school for a period of one year, provided that:

(a) All funds raised during such one-year period shall be held in a trust and under the control of the trust department of a bank or trust company in this state.

(b) A record of the names and addresses of donors to the fund shall be kept by the fund raiser and furnished to the board on demand with respect to all contributions in excess of ten dollars ($10) in funds or property from any one donor.

(c) In the event sufficient funds have not been raised within one year from the issuance of such license to finance establishment and initial operation of a guide dog school, all such funds, after payment of the costs of fund raising, and the option to buy land, the cost of which shall not exceed 20 percent of the funds raised, shall be repaid prorata to the donors thereof with respect to any donations in excess of ten dollars ($10) from any one donor.

(d) A fee of fifty dollars ($50) shall be paid upon issuance of a license for advance solicitation. In the discretion of the board, for good cause shown by the applicant, the license for advance solicitation may be extended for one additional year. During the period of advance solicitation, no funds shall be expended for purposes other than the cost of fund raising and the cost of obtaining an option to buy or lease land for a school site.
