Online fundraising is well underway…
We are just under the $50,000 mark online, however we still have a long way to go if we are to reach our online goal of $200,000 – We know we can get there with your help! If you have yet to do so, please log onto www.rideforsight.com and follow the simple steps that will guide you in setting up your own online fundraising page. Remember, you can post a photo of yourself along with a few words explaining why you are participating in Ride for Sight. It’s a fun and easy way to reach out to your friends, family & collegues.
If a donor book is the way you prefer to fundraise, you can pick up a book at most area dealers or by calling us at 1.800.461.3331 and we will be more than happy to send one out to you.

Let’s make 2008 the year that Central Ontario raises one million dollars for The Foundation Fighting Blindness!
