WELCOME TO HERITAGE VISION OF HOPE
Heritage Vision of Hope is an initiative intended to close the gap of undiagnosed eye diseases that affect the quality of life for children, seniors, the underprivileged, and the community at large.
We welcome you to help us as we bridge the gap of providing everyone with an opportunity to a comprehensive eye exam and glasses at little or no cost to the recipients. Everyone should be entitled to see, regardless of age, transportation issues or socioeconomic background.
You can support us by offering your time and energy as a volunteer, as well as through your financial support!
Our ImpacT within the community
Good eye and vision health can reduce health disparities, but promoting optimal conditions for eye and vision health can also positively influence many other social ills, including poverty, other health inequities, increasing health care costs, and avoidable suffering from eye diseases.
New research suggests a lack of access to vision care services has contributed to racial, ethnic and socioeconomic disparities in visual function among Black, Hispanic and poorer adolescents.
