Organiser's Description

The Minnesota Eye Foundation (MEF) created the STRIDES 4 SIGHT 5K WALK/RUN AND KIDS FUN RUN in 2014 to increase awareness and funding for The Vision Project, Minnesota Eye Foundation's community outreach program offering eye care services and surgical treatments to patients unable to otherwise afford care.

The event is a volunteer effort led by Minnesota Eye Foundation and Strides 4 Sight committee, a group of volunteers dedicated to making a difference throughout the Twin Cities and greater Minnesota.

Since 2014, THIS ANNUAL FUNDRAISER HAS GENERATED OVER $200,000 TO THE VISION PROJECT and to the Foundation's mission of enriching the quality of life of individuals through sight-restoring surgeries.

We are thrilled to host the 2025 Strides 4 Sight event on SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 21, 2025 AT THE COMO PARK LAKESIDE PAVILION IN ST. PAUL, MINNESOTA.
