Foundation Volunteers Paved the Way to Many Successes in 2023!

Getting involved with others in the Coats' Disease community provides a sense of support, understanding, and shared determination to raise awareness and find new ways to support those affected by this rare eye condition. In 2023, we have been so fortunate to have had many volunteers help raise awareness and fundraise through various events. THANK YOU to all of our volunteers this past year. We couldn't do what we do without you. 

Here are some highlights from 2023: 

  • 17th Annual Golf Outing, chaired by Ed McGovern, John Bruno, and Jack McGovern

  • Sip, Shop, & Support, hosted by Tina McGovern, Carol Rossi, Zareen Siddiq, and Robyn Shore

  • Cure Coats' 5K, led by Gary Brickley

  • Connecting for a Cure, inspired by Negar Souza

  • Notes for Coats', created by Lisa Richardson

  • A Coats' Disease Panel at the Advances in Pediatric Retina Conference, co-directed with Dr. Mary Elizabeth Hartnett and Dr. Lejla Vajzovic,
    featuring Drs. Tom Lee, Mike Jumper, and Franco Recchia

  • Vision Screening Awareness in Schools, led by Suzanne Levere and the CAN

  • Coats'-to-Coats' Mentor Program, led by Scott McCrady
