VisionWalk

Do you have artistic skills, enjoy being outside and dedicating time a great cause? They join us at the Boston VisionWalk! You will have your own area in the Kids' Zone as well as bagels and coffee!

The walk and fun-filled day will be held on Saturday, October 28, 2017 at Artesani Park in Brighton. Hosted by the Foundation’s Boston-area volunteers, VisionWalk is a family-friendly 5K (3.1 miles) walk-a-thon designed to raise awareness of and funds for the Foundation’s urgent mission to drive the research to find preventions, treatments and cures for retinal degenerative diseases. The Foundation holds more than 40 VisionWalks each year and, since the first Walks were held in 2006 we have raised $37 million to fund sight-saving research. We are expecting over 600 walkers to take part in a fun-filled day of family oriented activities with a goal to raise $175,000. With your support of the Boston VisionWalk we move closer to a cure.
