Events like Saturday help PBT achieve our mission!
We said it was going to bigger and better, and it was thanks to you! We were incredibly grateful to everyone who participated and is a part of the PBT family. PBT isn’t just an organization — it’s people! Numerous volunteers and 9 staff across the state work to educate, advocate, and empower communities. We couldn’t do it without you. With your participation in events such as the Eye Stroll for Vision, you help us transform lives and serve our mission to prevent blindness and preserve sight to those in Texas.
Our goal is to raise $60,000 and we are currently at $25,000.
Will you help us achieve it?
