Welcome to RP International - Serving The Visually Impaired

WHERE YOUR DONATION GOES...

RP (Retinitis Pigmentosa) International has been helping counsel and comfort the visually impaired and their families for approximately 40 years.
RPI is providing education and spreading the word regarding the millions of people who have retinal degenerative diseases like Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP), Macular Degeneration and Usher's Syndrome.
Our research advisory board invites funding requests from prestigious research centers and awards the most promising. RPI has contributed over $8 million to medical research and is behind the first successful retinal transplant.
Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP) strikes people of all ages. Unfortunately, children are the most commonly diagnosed. We are determined to stop RP within this generation.

Vision Awards

Visit the Vision Awards on the Internet at www.visionawards.org

Sight is a sense that is both physical and mental. Each year the "Vision Awards" will concentrate its appreciation on a different organization or industry where the members have used their sight, foresight and insight to further the development of a product or service for the benefit and the advancement of humankind.

We intend to spotlight People of Vision, ones who have focused on dreams with passion and commitment, and subsequently nurtured them into reality.

The celebration of movies, television and music is something we all do every day. However, most of us don't take the time to appreciate how much these media both enrich and influence us in our daily lives.

Those who have been blinded by eye disease are aware of the "gifts" of movies, television, music, research, technology, leadership, and what they have meant to the world. In their honor, we have created the "Vision Awards."
