Social distancing means that we can't do a tandem bike this year. So instead, we are going to walk a half-marathon on June 20 in support of vision research!
Fighting Blindness Canada depends heavily on fundraising events and so Covid-19 is having a serious impact. We are projecting a $1 million gap in our budget from the Covid-related disruptions. Meanwhile, research continues: experiments that have been going on for years can't be put on pause for a pandemic.
We realize that this is a financially difficult time for many. We are asking those who are able to consider making a contribution to support the fight for cures and treatments for blinding eye disease.
Best,
Steve & Aria
