Today Vision To Learn was at Northwood Middle School where we provided 40 students with glasses to celebrate our Northeast Ohio partnership with Ford Philanthropy! Thanks to a generous $650,000 grant from Ford Philanthropy, 15,000 #cleveland and #loraincounty students will be provided with vision care, including 5,000 with eye exams and over 4,000 with glasses, all at no cost to students or their families. A huge thank you to Ford Philanthropy for your support. We're excited to continue working with you to ensure that every child in Cleveland and Lorain County has the glasses they need to see clearly in school and in life. #EyeCare #visiontolearn #eyecareprofessionals #glasses

Vision To Learn provides free eye exams and glasses to children in underserved communities throughout the United States.
About us
Vision To Learn is the largest school-based vision care nonprofit in the country. VTL exists to address one basic premise – if you can’t see, you can’t learn. Vision To Learn provides eye exams and glasses to students in underserved communities to help them succeed in school and in life at no cost to the child or their family. See visiontolearn.org for current opportunities to make a difference in your community. Vision To Learn solves a problem affecting as many as 1.5 million children nationwide who lack the glasses they need to see the board, read a book, study math or participate in class. Kids in low-income communities and minorities are disproportionately affected. The problem is one of access as most of the kids, for a host of reasons, do not get to a doctor. Vision To Learn solves the problem by bringing the clinic to the kids at schools and community organizations and providing eye exams and glasses free of charge. Vision To Learn has accomplished a great deal since it was started in 2012 in Los Angeles and plans to use that experience to serve as a model for the rest of the nation.

A summer of sight! 👀 With the leaves changing color and summer in the rearview mirror, we want to take the time to celebrate another successful summer partnership with Hartford Public Library. For the past three summers Vision To Learn has partnered with Hartford Public Library to provide children with the glasses they need to see clearly in school and in life. This summer our partnership resulted in over 100 children receiving eye exams and 80 receiving glasses all at no cost to the child or their family. We look forward to working with you next summer to ensure that every child in Hartford has the glasses they need to be ready for the school year. #visiontolearn #eyecare #mobilevision #hartford #connecticut
