Vision Screenings

Posted on November 2, 2018

Main Street Child Development Center in the City of Fairfax, on Oct 30: Main Street is a pre-school that reaches out to children in poor families and children with disabilities.  We checked vision of 73 children (age 3-6) and 4 teachers, and referred 10 children (13.7% of total children) for professional eye care.  It required only about 9 hours of volunteer time to render this service.

The Lamb Center on three days: Oct 31, Nov 1, and Nov 2:   The Center is a drop-in day center that works to assist in practical ways to transform the lives of the homeless, the very poor, those with mental and physical disabilities, and those with substance abuses.  A total of 28 guests were screened over the three days, and 15 were referred for professional eye examinations.

WE SERVE THE WORLD AND OUR LOCAL COMMUNITIES WITH PRIDE, COMPASSION AND KINDNESS.
