Women Give Taos is proud to announce that this year’s $30,000 grant will be awarded to Lions Club of Taos Inc., which will go toward funding their transformative KidSight Eye Van Program.
The Lions Club of Taos Inc. was chartered in 1927 and is approaching 100 years of service. Members are dynamic, community-minded individuals from all walks of life who enjoy being deeply involved in helping others.
Good vision is essential for learning—80% of education is visual. A child struggling to see in the classroom or read at their grade level is less likely to succeed academically and in life. Sadly, many children who struggle with vision issues face delays in receiving screening and treatment, and some never receive the necessary glasses. The KidSight Eye Van will bring eye exams and glasses directly to students at their schools, eliminating barriers like lack of transportation, scheduling difficulties, and financial need.
Congratulations to Lions Club of Taos, Inc. on receiving this year's award!
Thank you to the Taos News for hosting us at the annual Taos Women of Impact event.
