Remembering Beverly Blettner

Over the past several decades, Beverly donated her time and leadership to fundraising for charitable causes throughout the Chicago area. Her passion for philanthropy brought new opportunities to organizations like the Illinois Eye-Bank. Her legacy lives on through the Community Education Endowment Fund, established by the Eye-Bank in 2008 to recognize her dedication to our mission: The preservation and restoration of sight.

"The question is not what you look at, but what you see."
-Henry David Thoreau

On behalf of the Illinois Eye-Bank staff, Board of Directors, friends and supporters: Thank you, Beverly.

Make a memorial contribution in Beverly's honor.
