Inaugural Maine VisionWalk

Thank you to everyone who joined us for the Inaugural Maine VisionWalk at Payson Park in Portland, ME! We had over 75 walkers and 12 fantastic teams participate in this year’s VisionWalk to help Foundation Fighting Blindness raise over $23,000 for critical retinal degenerative disease research!

We want to give a special thank you to our VisionWalk Co-Chairs, Kristine Hedtler and Dave Jackson, our Medical Chair, Dr. Michael Johnson, and our Honorary Co-Chairs, US Senator Olympia Snowe and Senator Susan Collins.

Also thank you so much to our sponsors: Retina Associates of Maine, Atlee Gleaton, McNabb Marketing, Evonik Cyro, LLC and Down East Enterprise

Also, we want to thank our in-kind donors, Hannaford, Whole Foods, Trader Joe’s and Panera Bread 

We also could not have had such a wonderful walk day without the support of all of teams, walkers and volunteers.

Congratulations to our top five fundraising teams: Eyes for ME, The Visionaries, Clam Cove Clod Hoppers, Giant Steps & Eagle Eye

And congratulations to our “Best T-shirt” contest winner – Eyes for ME for screaming the loudest!

Once again a huge THANK YOU and CONGRATULATIONS for all of your fantastic efforts and support!
