We're Coming to Salt Lake City!
A new community. New connections. A shared vision for a world without blinding diseases.
The Foundation Fighting Blindness is excited to announce the launch of our Salt Lake City Chapter! We're bringing together individuals and families impacted by blinding diseases, community advocates, healthcare professionals, and supporters who share our commitment to advancing research and finding treatments and cures.
As we build our chapter, we invite YOU to be part of something special!
Throughout 2027, we'll be hosting Vision Connections, our signature educational event, social and networking opportunities, and the Salt Lake City VisionWalk in fall 2027. These events will provide opportunities to connect with others, learn about advancements in vision research, access valuable resources, and make a meaningful impact.
