Final Update: Thank you all for your help!
Thank you!!! We are so excited and inspired by this community's generosity. With your help, we raised 177% of our goal, for a total of $1,775 raised in honor of Val for future BAVRD meetings. Val was so full of creativity and life, and we aspire to channel that energy into next year's BAVRD, and to make the conference better than ever! The student organizers will be in touch as soon as the date for BAVRD 2018 is set. Thank you again! - BAVRD planning committee
We are overwhelmed!
We are so excited and thankful for all of you who have donated to this campaign in Val's honor. As of now, we have far exceeded our initial goal of raising $1000 in Val’s memory for future BAVRD meetings. We have one week left of this campaign for anyone who has considered giving a gift. What we raise goes towards the sharing of vision science research; we sincerely hope all of our supporters will join us for BAVRD 2018 and beyond to see the positive impact of your generosity! The student organizers will be in touch as soon as the date for BAVRD 2018 is set.
Thank you again!

Thank you to all the colleagues who have donated in Val's memory. Your combined support has propelled us 90% of the way to our goal in a very short time.
Val was described by a colleague as full of life and ideas. We hope that future BAVRDs share this spirit.
