Giving Glasses.
Connecting Communities.
Bringing the Gift of Sight to Rural Communities Around the World.
Giving Glasses
EyesUp began with one simple goal: to bring the gift of sight to the people of Guatemala. In a country where prescription glasses often cost the equivalent of an entire month's salary or more, many families are simply unable to afford them. With the help of individual donations, a partnership with Zenni Optical, and some strictly grassroots organizing, the team at EyesUp has already donated nearly 1000 individually personalized prescription glasses.
Connecting Communities
EyesUp was founded with a vision of a world where people truly see each other as one human family, where empathy and solidarity guide the choices we make at local and global levels, where everyone takes responsibility for contributing to the betterment of the world, and where a desire to serve is guided by genuine feelings of love and friendship. Our teams in Guatemala and the United States work hard to embody these values every day.
