Run For Sight Virtual 5K
Join us for the Run For Sight Virtual 5K, a community fundraiser benefiting the Florida Lions Eye Clinic and its mission to provide eye care services for uninsured and low-income patients.
This virtual event allows participants to complete a 5K (3.1 miles) from anywhere between Jun 23 and July 31, 2026. Whether you choose to run, walk, jog, or use a treadmill, every mile helps support access to life-changing vision care for those who need it most.
The Florida Lions Eye Clinic provides essential eye care services, including exams, treatments, and procedures for patients who may otherwise be unable to afford care. Through this fundraiser, we hope to raise $3,000 to help support the clinic’s mission and expand access to quality vision care.
How It Works
Whether you’re aiming for a personal best or simply participating to support vision care, everyone is welcome.
Awards & Prizes
As an added incentive, the top three finishers will receive:
🥇 1st Place: $100 Visa Gift Card
🥈 2nd Place: $50 Visa Gift Card
🥉 3rd Place: $25 Visa Gift Card
Plus bragging rights!
Our Goal
Our goal is to raise $3,000 to support the Florida Lions Eye Clinic and help provide eye care services to those in need. Every registration and donation brings us one step closer to ensuring more individuals and families have access to the vision care they deserve.
Run. Give. Restore Vision.
