Recently, Macular Degeneration International formed a partnership with The Foundation Fighting Blindness. This partnership combines the strength of The Foundation’s research mission to find treatments and cures for macular degeneration with MDI’s mission to help people lead independent and rewarding lives.
In addition to funding research, The Foundation produces comprehensive patient education materials for macular degeneration and related diseases. With our complementary strengths, MDI and The Foundation can better serve its constituents.
The new partnership with The Foundation will allow MDI to provide its constituents with up-to-the-minute research information without diverting us from our primary mission to help patients with macular degeneration live independent and productive lives. Members of MDI will receive The Foundation’s newsletters filled with information about research and clinical trials for macular degeneration. MDI will contribute to The Foundation’s newsletters with low-vision information.
