Fighting Blindness Canada (FBC) leads the fight against blindness by raising and directing funds to vision research. With approximately 1 in 5 Canadians having an eye disease that puts them at risk of vision loss, FBC’s work is critical. As Canada’s leading private funder of vision research, FBC offers hope to Canadians by identifying the best, most promising research that is driving treatments and cures for blinding eye diseases, and by raising and stewarding funds to support this essential, sight-saving research. Over its 49-year history, it has invested over $40 million to support vision research and education across Canada: providing over 200 research grants that have led to over 600 new discoveries in areas such as stem cell research, neuroprotective therapies, technological developments, pharmaceuticals, and gene therapies.
Founded in 1974 as the Retinitis Pigmentosa Foundation of Canada, the organization rebranded in 2000 to Foundation Fighting Blindness and expanded its mission beyond rare inherited retinal diseases to include age-related macular degeneration. Its long-term focus on funding vision research steadily demonstrated that a discovery about one disease often reveals important insights about another. These meaningful interconnections inspired and informed the expansion of its mission to include all blinding eye diseases, and in 2019 the organization became Fighting Blindness Canada.
