Thank you. It has been a privilege to support and be supported by amazing people and organizations over the last 12 years. Although our quest is complete, the vision remains. We hope you continue to reach for a vision beyond your sight.

Tomorrow we will say farewell, but today we say thank you. Your patronage of our Peak Potential events, your support of our fundraising drives, your sharing of our social media posts allowed us to chalk up $830,000 in donations since 2010 for @FutureInSightNH and @GDB_official.
2 more days. Randy has been privileged to speak for so many organizations over the last 12 years. From conferences to graduations, from civic organizations to Fortune 500 companies, 2020VQ's message has helped organizations bring focus to community and communication.
3 days left until we draw our operations to a close. Today's image highlights our educational outreach program. It has been an honor to speak to nearly 100,000 students across the region and even the country and offer them message of ability awareness.
5days remain for an idea that grew into a big adventure. It's been our pleasure these last 12 years to do what we could to help the blind and visually impaired community, teach students to see past their limitations, and inspire a community to achieve a vision beyond their sight.
Last day and your last chance to be a part of our closeout check presentation to two organizations doing great work for people in need. @GDB_official trains guide dogs and @FutureInSightNH provides so many services I can't even name them all here! All of them at no charge!
A little more than a day remains, we'd be honored if you would make us a part of your 2022 charitable giving and help us in our last efforts to provide funds for FIS and GDB who continue to provide top notch services for the blind and visually impaired!
Tomorrow we cease collection of funds as we begin the final stages of sunsetting 2020VQ. We're hoping to maximize our donations to @FutureInSightNH and @GDB_official with two final big checks before we call it a wrap. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

The countdown is on! In order close the financial books by the time we close the whole book on 2020VQ for good, we need to end collection of funds by April 30th. We set a close out target of $125k, and we are close, but we could use your help!

We got to be Heroes of Summer just for one day. Youβve seen the video, now you can hear the story behind the music.

Just over 7 years ago 5 friends met up in San Bernardino, CA to do a thing. One @ObertoBeefJerky commercial and one viral video later hundreds of thousands, maybe millions of people were exposed to the idea of ability awareness! Well played, Randy Pierce. https://t.co/56ftn3GrsH
On this Throwback Thursday, some words of retrospect from the newest comer to the 2020 Vision Quest staff, Media Content Manager, Michal Leah!

48 4k's in winter? Check. 48 4k's in summer? Check. @bostonmarathon? Check. How do you keep the ball rolling? How about combining running and the hiking into one? Might as well throw in some obstacles. Feeling cute, might become the first blind person to complete a @ToughMudder.
Brent Bell, UNH Professor and longtime friend and fraternity brother of Randy Pierce. The stories he must have. He's shared some with us today, they're not the juicy ones, but they are definitely the heartfelt ones. Thank you, Brent!

The time you guys brought it and I had to edit our graphic as we unexpectedly crushed our yearend goal in July, great problem to have! Don't forget, we're still collecting until 4/30 and are hoping to make one last big deposit into the coffers of @GDB_official & @FutureInSightNH!
For most, running a marathon would have been the pinnacle, only 1% of runners will ever do it. But Randy had his sights aimed higher, the pinnacle of the marathon world, the @bostonmarathon. He achieved his goal in 2015, with an 8:50 per mile pace, no less.
ICYMI, this whole week @bostonbilliard will be helping us finish strong and donating their proceeds to us! We have a party to celebrate 2020VQ on Wednesday the 16th from 6-9. Come meet the 2020 Vision Quest crew and help us celebrate, maybe hoist a beverage or play a hand or two!
Our mission continues thru 30April and supporters @bostonbilliard are helping us finish strong! March 14-18, proceeds of BB's charitable gaming will benefit us! We're having a party to celebrate 2020VQ on Wednesday 3/16 from 6-9. Come meet the our crew and help us celebrate!
A main focus of 2020VQ has been shifting our focus away from the things we can't do and zeroing in on the things that we CAN do. Ed Babcock is one of many success stories of that message. We'll let him tell it:
