What is Vision Walk?
VisionWalk is the national signature fundraising event of the Foundation Fighting Blindness. Since its inception in the Spring of 2006, the program has raised over $13 million to fund sight-saving research. As promising treatments move into critical human studies, the need for research funding is greater than ever before. Join the tens of thousands of people who have taken important steps toward a cure by participating in a 5K VisionWalk.
What is #DCTweetup?
#DCTweetup is a ‘non’-networking event for locals to put a face to a Twitter handle. It’s a relaxing evening of networking with your neighbors, local business owners and meeting new friends. This is not your typical ’state what you do & hand over your business card’ event. #DCTweetup is for the introverted & extroverted alike to share in great conversation, relationship-building and fun.
