The Christmas Gift

The Foundation received a most thoughtful and caring donation during the 2002 Christmas season. Two sisters called the office to explain that they were blessed with good health and "all they needed." They felt that their friends were also very fortunate and "really did not need anything, either." Therefore, they chose to make a meaningful donation to the Macular Vision Research Foundation in the name of 15 members of their family and close friends to enhance the Foundation's research program.

The poem that they sent with the announcement of their gift is reprinted below, with their permission.
