In the last 90 days we have provided direct services to over 29,000 students in 22 school divisions, finding 28% in need of follow-up vision care (well above the 25% national average). Through our programs we’ve found dozens of classrooms all across Virginia with more than 50% of its students needing vision services, a staggering result, which even surprised us!
One of our projects this year allowed us to deliver onsite eye exams and glasses following our screening. Watching the faces of these children light up with their new glasses has been a stark reminder that there really is no better gift than the gift of sight. Please help us meet the urgent needs of our scholarship fund. Your donation will help us get back on budget with that “leap of faith” we took earlier this year and allow us to ready our programs to start 2017!
Make your gift last all year long by joining our 20/20 club with an ongoing monthly gift! Gift of Sight Donors will be recognized on our website.
Please help us to eliminate undetected and untreated vision problems as barriers to success in school. We can do better and we should. No child should have their learning experience limited by something as simple as a correctible vision problem. Help us make that change!
Thank you for your support and Merry Christmas!
