Welcome to Race to Cure Blindness





If you are running, run to cure blindness.
If you are swimming, swim to cure blindness.
Whatever the competition – Race to Cure Blindness!

Race to Cure Blindness is a fundraising program where participants utilize a marathon, triathlon, bike race, or other racing event as a platform to raise money for the Foundation Fighting Blindness' mission to drive the research that will provide preventions, treatments, and cures for the entire spectrum of retinal degenerative diseases..

If you would like to use your racing effort to raise money for the Foundation, the Race to Cure Blindness is an excellent way to make your participation more meaningful and to motivate you when the going gets tough.

This program unites people participating in existing races throughout the country with a very worthy cause: furthering the mission of the Foundation Fighting Blindness!

If you are interested in participating in this program, please contact your local Foundation Fighting Blindness office. For additional information on existing races, please click on the links to the right to find out more!

Riders Radical Reach“Slogging through the mud” is usually a term that’s used figuratively, but Jessica Rider did exactly that during a 5K obstacle-course race in early June. She, as well as 10 teammates, including husband, Dana, navigated the course – which included nets, fences and tires – to raise funds for the Foundation Fighting Blindness via the Race to Cure Blindness program.
