Our major fundraising event, the annual Sabates Eye Centers Trolley Run, is the largest four-mile run/walk in the U.S. with more than 10,000 adults and children participating! More than 600 volunteers work on the run, some year-round. Since 1989, the Trolley Run has raised more than $2.5 million for CCVI.
