Dear Friend,

Last year on the Vision Awards stage, we were introduced to three miracles. First, two young people joined us – the sister had donated her own adult stem cells to her brother who had not seen in twenty-two years, he can now see his wife, three children, the ocean and the sunrise. Second, a new drug was introduced that is now available to help alleviate the effects of macular degeneration. And third, a young child with Batten’s Disease, and visual impairments from RP, was about to undergo a cell transplant. He has since received the transplant and has regained both usable vision and mobility!

Imagine we’ve had the reversal of blindness in our lifetime. It’s true. Several of our clinical trials have restored vision to previously blind children and seniors. Without the funding the Vision Awards provides, these miracles would never have been possible. We truly believe we have found a cure! Now we only need to fund it.

Included with this letter is a DVD message from a recent TheatreVision Movie Premier with personalized greetings from hundreds of blind children and adults. TheatreVision description of movies brings to life all the incredible action, drama and beauty that films create. With the addition of TheatreVision Description by Hollywood’s top stars, the movies can be more fully enjoyed by the nations 32 million visually impaired and blind.

We have established a goal of raising 1.2 million dollars this year. Giving the gift of sight to millions is as simple as selling fifty $25,000 Winner’s Circle Sponsorships at this year’s event.

With your help, we can we can make this a reality. Please call me at at (818) 992-0505 or (818) 992-0631 to discuss how your support can make this miracle a reality now!

Warmest regards,
