Greetings!
The 5th Annual Boston VisionWalk is growing! This year's event will be held on Saturday, October 27th at Artesani Park in Brighton, MA. Last year we raised more than $150,000 and had more than 500 people attend the VisionWalk. How much can we grow this year?
The VisionWalk website is up and running and we've already had two
teams register. Please join me in thanking our early registrants!

We had 69 teams last year - can we get to 75 this year? Registering is
easy - you can use your username () and password
() from last
year. Or, you can call Katie or Noell in the New York office at (212)
244-1470 and we can do the registration for you. |

Did you know that corporate participation is one of the fastest growing parts of VisionWalk?
Corporate sponsors and teams help us raise more dollars, engage more
people, and raise more awareness for the Foundation's mission. |
|
| |
|
|
|
|

 |
We need your help in reaching out to people you know who may be able
to help us grow the Boston VisionWalk's corporate participation.
We have sponsorship opportunities available from $1,000 to $20,000. Companies are much more likely to get involved when a personal contact
is made.
Who can you ask to support the VisionWalk?
Do you have a friend, relative, neighbor, or business
associate who might be willing to help? Remember, people give to people so companies will respond when asked by someone they know and do business with. Some possibilities include:
|
|
| |
|
|
|
|
| |
- The company where you work
- The company where your spouse works
- A business that you regularly patronize (dry cleaner, salon, dentist, etc.)
- A business owned by a family friend
- A family foundation
- A business with an interest in our cause (ophthalmologists, retinal specialists, etc.)
-
A local Lions Club
|
|

|
|
|

In addition to contributing sponsorship dollars, there are many other ways companies can help VisionWalk grow. For example:
- Forming a company team
- Making in-kind product or service donations
- Assisting with VisionWalk advertising
- Participating as committee members and community leaders
