The 2015 Ride for Sight event is a bike ride from Saratoga, NY to New York, NY on June 29-July 1. The Bank is sponsoring a team of cyclists to complete the 3-day ride and raise USD100,000+ for Seeing is Believing. The bank will match all monies raised by the cyclists.
To date, Seeing is Believing has reached 45 million people in some of the world’s poorest communities by giving them access to eye-care services, funding projects to prevent blindness and restore vision. 80% of the world’s blindness is avoidable. Incredibly, a person’s sight can be restored for as little as USD$30. Please give what you can, your contributions make an enormous impact. Loss of sight often results in social exclusion, making blind people vulnerable to abuse, poverty and early death. Less than half of all children who lose their sight will survive to adulthood. The figures are overwhelming. Help us to help others see by donating now.

THE BANK WILL MATCH ALL FUNDS RAISED!!! ~All donations are tax deductible~

Also, on a personal note. I will volunteer in your honor at any NYC charity of your choice if you donate more than $50 to my goal of $600 (limited to the first 10 donations of 50+).
