Why?

We believe ALL children deserve to see clearly. For more than 30 years, The Vision of Children Foundation (VOC) has funded research to find cures for hereditary childhood blindness and genetic vision disorders. VOC-funded researchers are exploring revolutionary new treatments utilizing a patient’s own stem cells to replace defective DNA.

Cures for genetic vision disorders are in sight but cannot be reached without your help. Your participation in this year’s Spring Tea Event will help fund the research that will help give the gift of sight to children around the world.

Tickets:

$195 Individual

$225 Premier Ticket

After all…it’s always tea time-until it isn’t.
