First Sight

Collaborate for a Clearer Vision...
Join Our Mission - Get Involved Today!

Just imagine not being able to see your child’s face clearly, or not being able to read a book or drive a car. That’s the reality for over a billion people around the world.

85% of children’s learning is visual, yet 10%-12% of children worldwide struggle to see the board clearly. On average it costs less than about $5 to provide a pair of prescription glasses. With this small contribution, you can transform a child’s life forever. We have now screened and provided customized prescription eyeglasses to tens of thousands of children and adults.  Join us today and become a sponsor of our FirstSIghtRafiki (friend in Swahili) program.

First Sight seeks to reach such children and adults in the neediest communities by forming collaborations with NGOs, health clinics, schools, faith-based organizations and civic groups. Through these collaborative partnerships, we aim to provide free eyeglasses to the final recipients and to extend our impact even further. Be part of the transformation by donating to First Sight. We will pair you with a bonafide organization to distribute eyeglasses to the organization or a country of your choice and report back to you the wonderful rewards of your contributions.  Your contribution directly helps children and adults in developing areas of the world, ensuring that the First Sight eyeglasses reach those who need them most.
