This family got the devastating news that their elementary-age son was slowly going blind — and there’s currently no cure. They decided to hit the road and ensure Luke got to see as much of the country as possible while he still has sight! Now, their adventure van is part of an epic giveaway to support their non-profit, A Race Against Blindness, that will fund a clinical trial for retinitis pigmentosa.
You can enter to win the van pictured below, or a custom van built to your own needs, PLUS $70,000 to help with taxes. It’s an incredible family van with sleeping for up to 6 people and seating for four. And yes, there’s an indoor shower!

How clever to make the interior black. So restful to those with different types of eye impairment or are in the stages of blindness. It’s a well thought design in the Van, and a well thought out plan to fund a great foundation. God bless your efforts.
