Pints for Sight: Fundraising Your Way in Eugene
Fundraiser Success Stories
Pints for Sight is a great example of how Vision Warriors can fundraise their way. By bringing together friends, neighbors, and local supporters in Eugene, Baila Shakaib turned a simple idea into an event that advanced the mission of the Foundation Fighting Blindness.

On August 10, the Eugene, Oregon, community came together for Pints for Sight, a Vision Warrior fundraiser benefiting the Foundation Fighting Blindness. Hosted at Oakshire Brewing Public House, the event brought people together for local drinks, henna, and an educational presentation from Dr. Muhammad Hassan, a local retina surgeon.

Organized by Baila Shakaib, Pints for Sight is a great example of how anyone, anywhere, can create their own opportunity to support the Foundation. Baila brought her community together through an event that combined fundraising, connection, and education.
That’s the power of being a Vision Warrior.
Vision Warrior gives you the freedom to fundraise your way, wherever you are and however you choose. You don’t need a chapter, a big event, or a fundraising background to get started. Your fundraiser could be a birthday celebration, a fitness challenge, a dinner, a golf outing, a gaming stream, a partnership with a local business, or something completely unique to you.
When you become a Vision Warrior, you’re not just raising money—you’re rallying your friends, family, coworkers, and community around a shared mission. We provide the tools, resources, and support to help turn your idea into an impactful fundraiser.
