The Spirit of Light Award
2010/2011
Allergan, Inc.
Allergan has been a wonderfully supportive sponsor of the Blind Childrens Center for more than six years. Their generosity goes above and beyond, not only contributing funds but their personal time and energy as volunteers. They also play a great game of golf which warms Tom's heart.
This year, they surprised us with more than we could have anticipated. One bright January day, they arrived with a BIG truck full of amazing gifts for the children, their families and our teachers. It took Allergan volunteers a whole day to unload hundreds of backpacks filled with supplies and toys for our students, families, and school. The Center's spacious living room was filled with these wonderful gifts. Every student received a new backpack filled with educational supplies and toys that were visual impairment-friendly. Parents and classrooms also received appropriate gifts.
Words cannot describe the joy that Allergan has brought to our students and their families over the years. Hugs and kisses from the children and from the bottom of all of our hearts, thank you!
“Allergan is a proud supporter of the Blind Childrens Center, a family-centered organization that aligns with our unwavering commitment to patient care.
For over 60 years, Allergan has focused on discovering and developing therapies to help protect and preserve vision worldwide. We are inspired by stories of patients who are blind or visually impaired as we advance our mission to offer innovative eye care products that may help prevent blindness.
Allergan also contributes to the future care of all patients with eye care needs in many other ways—beyond just treatment. Because of our enduring dedication in this area, eye care professionals and patients have come to rely on Allergan for its strong support and excellent products that treat a variety of conditions.”
