Light the Way as a Dark Dining Sponsor!

When you choose to become a Dark Dining sponsor you are supporting our goal to underwrite event expenses through both sponsorship and in-kind contributions. This ensures more money can go directly to our mission to prevent blindness and preserve sight.

Join us at an upcoming event!

Dark Dining Houston will be a ROARING good time including an auction, dinner, and entertainment. Guest will also have the opportunity to explore the challenges of the vision impaired through a dining in the dark experience and tactile stations.  The evening will also highlight and celebrate awardees who are paving the way in Prevent Blindness Texas’ mission, to prevent blindness and preserve sight, as well as have made a lasting impact in the field.
