50,000 children a year need proper eye care and eyeglasses but are not receiving them.

Eye Care 4 Kids has helped more than 300,000 children receive free or reduced eye care and glasses in Utah, Arizona, Nevada, New Jersey, and through their international efforts in Kenya.

There are so many important correlations between proper eye care/vision and success; not only in school, but in life. If a child cannot read, so many of life`s potentials cannot be met.

The need in Utah is growing and EC4K is expanding services and physical space at its main clinic in Midvale to meet the demands and they need your help!

Their campaign 'Brick The Clinic' gives you the opportunity to make a financial donation and they will put your name on a brick at their new clinic.

To donate directly go to eyecare4kids.org/brick/ or for general information about their non-profit go to eyecare4kids.org
