Supporting the Foundation Fighting Blindness
The first annual Drive For Sight charity event is officially a go! Drive for Sight is charity event for car enthusiasts in support of the incredible retinal research currently underway at Canadian universities and hospitals across our country.
The Foundation Fighting Blindness is a Canadian health charity that was founded in 1974 by a small group of families’ intent on finding a cure for the disease robbing their children of sight. At that time, retinitis pigmentosa, macular degeneration and other retinal dystrophies were thought to be incurable. Undaunted, these families enlisted the support of Canada’s leading medical scientists and set to work collecting money for vision research. From these humble beginnings, The Foundation Fighting Blindness has grown to become the leading private supporter of retina research in Canada.
A cure for is in sight! Come join us on July 11th!
