4Sight4Children

4Sight4Children, formerly known as the Blind Baby Fund, is an organization that provides financial assistance for families whose infants need eye surgery. This program is part of the Shiley Eye Center, which provides care for infants born with eye diseases that may result in blindness. Parents travel great distances to San Diego, CA and forsake many expenses for the surgery. 4Sight4Children helps these families by providing aid for lodging, transportation and medical bills.
Annually, 4 Sight4Children holds a Family Carnival fundraiser, in order to raise funds to help those families whose children will need surgery. And what better way to bring everyone together by inviting patients and friends to a fun-filled afternoon carnival! This year the event was held at the Paramount Studios in Los Angeles and included a silent auction and raffle, carnival activities and rides, as well as a barbeque lunch. Circle of Friends was happy to take part in this unique experience and contributed products for their auction as well as over 1,500 items for their gift bags!
