We are thrilled to celebrate Alexandra, our dedicated Development Assistant, who recently ran a 10K to raise funds for glaucoma research! Alex is passionate about making a difference in the lives of those affected by glaucoma, and her commitment to our mission truly shines through. "In my role at GRF, I speak with glaucoma patients daily and am constantly inspired by their resilience. I chose to fundraise for GRF because it is an organization dedicated to serving patients by investing in bold ideas and supporting research that would otherwise not be conducted. Knowing that my efforts were helping to advance this research and find a cure for glaucoma kept me motivated during the race. It also felt like a meaningful way to honor all the resilient patients I have come to know during my time with GRF." -Alexandra Dewey Feeling inspired? You can make a difference too!
