Mission Statement

RestoringVision.org is the non-profit vision resource that: 1. Provides nominally priced new readers and sunglasses to groups of charitable Samaritans who personally serve the vision needs of those throughout the world who otherwise would have no access. 2. Is the easiest way for reader and sun manufacturers to donate their excess inventories and positively change lives.

Description

We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit dedicated to providing glasses to people who would otherwise not have access. Since 2003, we have partnered with more than 1,400 organizations and helped over 8.5 million people in 124 countries around the world.

Reading glasses immediately correct close range vision problems, enabling a person to see clearly again. Studies have shown that vision correction leads to a 35% increase in productivity and 20% increase in wages. For someone earning $2 per day, that is an additional $140 of income per year. With a pair of reading glasses, people can carry out their daily tasks, work and lead productive lives again.
