At Vision for Life Institute, restoring sight isn’t just what we do—it’s what inspires us every day.
That’s why we’re excited to announce that we’re putting together Team Vision for Life for this year’s Fred’s Big Run, proudly supporting The Fred Hollows Foundation and its incredible mission to end avoidable blindness around the world.
Why We’re Running
Did you know that 90% of people who are blind or vision impaired don’t need to be?
Millions of people are living with preventable or treatable vision loss simply because they don’t have access to the eye care they need. Through Fred’s Big Run, every step we take and every dollar we raise helps deliver life-changing eye care, restore sight, and create brighter futures for people in Australia and across the world.
As eye care professionals, this cause couldn’t be closer to our hearts.
We’d Love You to Join Us!
Whether you’re one of our patients, a referring optometrist, a family member, friend, or simply someone who wants to make a difference—we’d love to have you on our team!
