CCVI Trolley Run
The CCVI Trolley Run isn’t just CCVI’s biggest fundraiser of the year. It’s one of the biggest timed four-mile races in America. Join us each April to race along the old trolley tracks while giving back to the families of CCVI. This event includes a 4-mile, After Bash, and kids’ run!

Third-Party Events
As a staple of the Kansas City community, we are proud to partner with individuals and companies throughout the area to help our students. These third-party fundraisers take place throughout the calendar year and are easy to get involved with! Whether it’s purchasing a scoop of ice cream from Betty Rae’s on our fundraising nights or participating in a trivia contest with the Greater Kansas City Delta Gamma Alumnae during A Night of Knowledge and Nonsense, having a good time can directly benefit children with visual impairments.
Check out some pictures from our most recent third-party fundraiser, KC Beep Kickball Adult Tournament!
