A message from our friends at 2020 Vision Quest!

Raising funds to provide needed services for the blind

Millions of aging Americans will lose their vision from cataracts and age-related macular degeneration (AMD), having to learn what it means to live without eyesight. 2020 Vision Quest supports the Future in Sight (formerly NH Association for the Blind), an organization that helps people learn the skills of living without vision.

Funding the cost of training guide dogs

A guide dog can make the difference between an active life and isolation. Your contribution to 2020 Vision Quest helps Guide Dogs for the Blind provide dogs at no cost to those who are blind or visually impaired. In addition, they provide a lifetime of support to help care for your guide dog.

Educating young people about “ability awareness”

Randy strives to teach students of all ages “Ability Awareness” – the idea that their response to overcome daunting challenges and not the challenges themselves is what defines them and others.

Inspiring people to reach beyond their limitations

Randyʼs message is that it isnʼt what happens to you, but rather how you respond to it that makes the difference. Your support keeps 2020 Vision Quest going strong in its mission to reach out and affect the lives of others.

Randy’s keen ability to connect the anecdotes of his inspirational and eventful life to your desired message will captivate, engage and educate your audience!

Connect with Randy@2020VisionQuest.org to make a plan.
