ARVO 2025 Matching Gift Campaign

Each year during the ARVO Annual Meeting, the ARVO Foundation for Eye Research holds its Matching Gift Campaign. Funds raised through this campaign support travel grants to be awarded for the following year's Annual Meeting, affording young eye and vision researchers from around the world the opportunity to share their work with their peers.  

For the 2025 Matching Gift Campaign, past ARVO president Patricia D’Amore, PhD, MBA, FARVO, made a generous $25,000 commitment from challenging the ARVO community to raise $50,000. The ARVO community responded, donating over $54,900 to support travel grants for young researchers to attend the ARVO 2026 Annual Meeting in Denver, Colo. Thank you for your investment in the next generation of eye and vision scientists. We can't wait to see you all next year!
