This event is a 5K (3.1 mile) family walk/run heightening public awareness and raising money to fund retinal research. Proceeds from Walk With a Vision supports the Foundation for Retinal Research mission to find treatments and cures for Retinal Degenerative Diseases and supporting the lives of affected families. Strollers welcome! Click here to register.

Ava Photo 1

Ava was diagnosed with Leber's Congenital Amaurosis (LCA). LCA is a rare, hereditary disorder that leads to retinal dysfunction and visual impairment at an early age – often from birth. Of all the retinal degenerations, LCA has the earliest age of onset and can be the most severe. In an effort to make a difference in the lives of many people living with a visual impairment, many will be participating in a Walk-With-A-Vision for the Foundation for Retinal Research. We encourage you to ask friends and family to support your efforts by sponsoring you and spreading the word! With your help someday this Foundation will be instrumental in helping researchers find a cure through gene therapy, pharmaceuticals, prosthetics or transplants. Because of people like you we will soon reach our goal of bringing vision to many people who are blind including Ava. 'While they were saying among themselves it cannot be done, it was done.'-- Helen Keller Thank you in advance for your support. Sincerely, Megan and Blair Huggins
