Our Mission
Our mission is to contribute towards improving the vision of the needy in poorer countries, and in so doing alleviate some of the poverties in the world. We achieve this goal by collecting used eyeglasses in North America and then recycling them for distribution to the disadvantaged in the poorer areas of the world by overseas religious missions and other qualified charitable organizations.
Our vision is to grow our organization from a small core team of dedicated volunteers to a large non-profit organization with many volunteers, national chapters and overseas missions in the long term.
We will evolve our used eyeglasses collections from local neighborhood efforts into national collection drives and gradually achieve worldwide distribution of recycled eyeglasses to poor countries in the long term.
