Foundation Trustee Judy Kahl, who has Usher syndrome which causes hearing and vision loss, founded the Just Because Campaign to help the Foundation in its urgent mission to end blinding retinal degenerative diseases.

Judy is well known for her Just Because Luncheon and Fashion Shows that have raised more than $73,000 to help find cures and they keep her as busy as a bee! There is no limit to the energy and enthusiasm she exudes on behalf of the Foundation and the determination that, one day soon, a cure will be found.

Bee kind, bee caring, bee generous and help find cures for blindness. Make your tax- deductible gift to the Foundation Fighting Blindness' Just Because campaign today. Help stop sight stealing degenerative eye diseases.

The black represents the darkness of being blind.

Gold is the beauty and brightness of sight.

Sparkle on the wings reminds us that the bee should not be able to fly because its undersized wings should not be able to carry its weight. BUT it does fly!

Finally, the green eyes will hopefully bring the "green" we need as in dollars to fund research and find a cure.
