Little Eyes, Big Dreams
Every Child Deserves Clear Vision
At Combat Blindness International, we believe every child deserves the chance to see their dreams come to life. For decades, we’ve worked to restore sight, empower communities, and create brighter futures—and this year is no exception.
Our 2024 Year-End Campaign focuses on the importance of pediatric eyecare, because healthy vision is the foundation for learning, growth, and opportunity. Together, we can help children overcome vision challenges and embrace a world of endless possibilities.
Through early screenings, prescription glasses, and critical surgeries, we’re removing barriers to success for children worldwide.
One in four school-aged children have an undiagnosed vision problem.
Mobile Vision Van: Vroom Vroom for Vision
Launching in February 2025, our Mobile Vision Van will bring critical pediatric eye care directly to underserved communities. This state-of-the-art vehicle is equipped with the latest tools to perform screenings, provide glasses, and identify children in need of further treatment. It’s a vital step in ensuring that no child is left behind due to preventable vision loss.
While we’re thrilled to have the equipment in place, the van can’t hit the road without the people who will make it all possible. We need your help to fund the staffing—dedicated optometrists, technicians, and support personnel—who will deliver these life-changing services.
Your donation can help us launch this ambitious initiative and reach hundreds of children in its first year alone. This year, you have the opportunity to make your gift go even further. Thanks to the generosity of our board of directors, all donations will be matched dollar-for-dollar, up to $45,000! This means your contribution will have twice the impact, bringing sight and hope to even more children.With your support, our Mobile Vision Van will create brighter futures and bring sight to those who need it most.
