“Every Dollar Protects Hope”—Amanda & Elin’s Story

Written By SKDK Digital Public Affairs

Funding federal research — especially federal vision research — is not just an investment in science, it’s an investment in people. For my daughter Elin, and for thousands across the country living with inherited retinal diseases, this funding is the difference between a future defined by loss and a future filled with possibility.

Every dollar protects hope, accelerates treatments, and brings us closer to the day when no child has to lose their sight to a disease we have the power to understand and defeat.

— Amanda Byerly, North Carolina,
