Description

For over 50 years. the Foundation Fighting Blindness has focused on our mission to find treatments and cures for blinding retinal diseases while serving as a beacon of hope for who for those who are affected by blindness. Our annual gala, Night for Sight recognizes industry and community leaders and celebrates their commitment to saving and restoring sight. Featuring a memorable evening of inspiration, interaction, and world-class entertainment, Night for Sight joins the efforts of two longtime Foundation Fighting Blindness events: Fashion & Finance Ball and A Vision for the Future, which have collectively raised over $14 million over the past decade.

Events like Night for Sight help the Foundation invest in research projects conducted by the world’s top scientists who have achieved remarkable success that will forever change the lives of people affected by blinding retinal diseases. We are encouraged by this incredible progress, but there is still much work to be done and you can help.

The Night for Sight auction will play a crucial role in raising necessary funds for the Foundation to
be a beacon for those affected with blinding retinal diseases and will drive groundbreaking research
that provides preventions, treatments and cures.

We hope you consider donating an item to help support this important event.
