The silent auction at the 12th Annual San Diego VisionWalk will occur on Sunday, November 3rd, 2019 at the Chula Vista Olympic Training Site. The Foundation Fighting Blindness was founded in 1971 and has raised over $750 million to fund promising research. This effort has propelled basic research out of the laboratory to multiple clinical trials around the world. The Foundation is also the largest non-government funded organization focusing on treatments and cures for retinal diseases such as retinitis pigmentosa, macular degeneration, Stargardts disease, and Usher Syndrome. These diseases and more affect over 10 million Americans to date and counting. We are in a race against time. The good news is that this is a mission that is getting real and developing exciting results!

Our goal through the VisionWalk program every year is to grow and spread awareness, raise funds, and unite the community at large. The silent auction is one component of the VisionWalk that enables participants to donate in additional capacities and help us raise additonal funds towards research.
