Give the Gift Of Sight Foundation
About
Us
Give the Gift of Sight is a family of charitable programs providing
free vision care and eyewear to underprivileged individuals in North
America and in developing countries around the world. Sponsored
by Give the Gift of Sight Foundation and Luxottica Group, these
programs have helped more than five million people on five continents
and in hundreds of communities across North America. You can learn
more about Gift of Sight at www.givethegiftofsight.org
Answering a Need
Around the world, in developing and industrialized countries alike,
millions of people suffer from poor vision because they lack access
to or simply cannot afford eye care. Poor vision impedes a child's
ability to learn in school and robs an adult of independence, mobility
and quality of life. Give the Gift of Sight is founded on the belief
that clear vision is a basic right, not a luxury. We are committed
to delivering clear vision to those in need.
How
Can You Help?
It's easy to help the world see. Just drop off your old prescription
glasses or even non-prescription sunglasses at a Pearle Vision,
LensCrafters or Sears Optical store near you. We'll make them good
as new and hand-deliver them to those in need around the world.
You can also help by donating to Give the Gift of Sight Foundation.
Because Luxottica Retail covers most Gift of Sight overhead, 93
cents of every dollar is spent directly on program activities. Click
here to donate now.
