Tomoka Eye Foundation, founded by Tomoka Eye Associates, has announced that they have donated $20,000 to the Center for the Visually Impaired. The check was presented May 25 at the CVI office in Daytona Beach.
The donation is a result of the foundation’s second-annual Tea and Biscuits fundraiser in April at Shores Resort and Spa. Funds from the event also went to guide dog support for the visually impaired.
“We are ecstatic that we were able to double our donation this year,” said Bill Watson, Tomoka Eye Foundation president.
