How can I help?
Put Your HOPE into ACTION!
The Foundation Fighting Blindness’ greatest strength is our supporters. Because of you, treatments and cures for blindness are in sight. But there is much more work to do!

Why not check off some great ways you can put your hope into ACTION and make a difference!
Fundraise with your local community & service groups
Some examples are to work with Rotary, Lions, and other clubs to put on bake sales, garage sales, raffles or barbeques.
Create your own fundraising event
Organize a dinner, dance, or golf tournament. It’s a great way to spend time with friends and support a great cause!
Volunteer at, or attend, an FFB event
The FFB’s annual fundraisers, Comic Vision and Ride for Sight, are always looking for volunteers. Check out www.comicvision.ca and www.rideforsight.com for dates.
Instead of a traditional holiday or birthday gift, why not ask friends and family to donate to the FFB “In Honour” of you.
Approach your employer for support
Ask if the FFB can benefit from any charitable activities, particularly during the holiday season. Don’t forget to ask the Human Resource Department about its policy on matching your charitable gift.
Be a fundraiser for Ride for Sight, a motorcycle charity in support of the FFB
Don’t ride a motorcycle? Show your support by sponsoring a rider or fundraise as a virtual rider. Visit: www.rideforsight.com for more info.
Become a monthly donor
As little as $5 dollars a month can help to ensure research continues until cures for everyone affected by retinal diseases are found.
A memorial gift
A thoughtful way to remember a loved one is to make a donation in their memory.
