CONGRATULATIONS CHICAGO!

We had an AMAZING day at our 8th Annual VisionWalk on Sunday, including our sixth year in a row with great weather!

Our teams and families raised an AMAZING $305,000 so far, and I am still entering a lot of checks from Sunday.

We welcomed 1000+ participants and 65 teams who enjoyed a beautiful day to celebrate their fundraising efforts in support of the Foundation and the critical research if funds.

It's never too late to donate to the walk.  Let's keep our thermometer rising!  Please send any checks to:
