Pennies For Sight
Posted September 15, 2008. Filed under Community.
Photography requires one of our most sacred senses, sight! Without sight many of us would be very limited, not being able to utilze photograhy for expression.
A rare disease called Retina Pigmentosa has struck a family conected to our community. This disease has already affected the sight of two young boys ages 10 and 12 along with their Mother. The eventual outcome for this family is blindness. Unfortunately due to the rareity of the disease, a cure has not been discovered. However a specailist in BC has developed a treatment that will slow down the process. All the proceeds from the Pennies for Sight Bucket will go directly towards the treatment expense for these boys.
Bring your coin collection rolled or unrolled, to The Camera Store and support the cause.
