Unite For Sight Elementary and Middle School Eye Clubs

What are Unite For Sight Eye Clubs?

Unite for Sight Eye Clubs are established by elementary and middle school students. Through fundraising and collecting eyeglasses, those involved with Eye Clubs make an extraordinary difference in the lives of children and adults globally. The eyeglasses that they collect, and the funds that they raise, provide sight-restoring eye care to patients living in extreme poverty in Africa and Asia.

Who can start an Eye Club?

Any middle or elementary school student, teacher, or parent, can start a "Unite For Sight Eye Club" to collect eyeglasses and fundraise to restore sight for patients living in extreme poverty in the developing world.

As an Eye Club volunteer, what will I do?

You will collect eyeglasses and raise funds to sponsor sight-restoring surgeries for patients living in extreme poverty in Ghana and India.

Volunteer Locally

I was amazed at the amount of preventable and/or treatable causes of eye disease that have gone unchecked here for many years. So many people, not just the elderly, but young children, were permanently blind from diseases that are easily treated in the U.S. Working with the Unite for Sight team on these outreaches in service to these wonderful people of Ghana was the single most rewarding work I've done in my life.
