Event Description

March Madness Against Blindness will be held at Damon's Grill in Ann Arbor. On those days, Myron Hepner pledges to watch every single game of the first round of the NCAA Basketball Tournament. Over a two-day span, this represents a total of 32 full basketball games! Damon's has four huge television screens which are perfect for watching up to four games at once!

In exchange for the contribution of his time and efforts, donations are requested in support of research programs at the University of Michigan Kellogg Eye Center so other people who struggle with vision problems might also have a chance to enjoy watching sporting events!
