We’re nearing the end of our Vision Field Trips for the school year! Yesterday, students from Decker Elementary School visited the clinic for care and left us with the sweetest thank you note. Moments like this are why we do what we do.

Glasses Day!

Today we delivered glasses to students at Widen Elementary after their recent Vision Field Trip! Because of your support, these students can now see clearly in the classroom and beyond. A special thank you to Santé Eyecare and Dr. Andrea Kells for joining us to help adjust fittings and ensure every pair was just right.

Another Vision Field Trip is in the books, but we still need your help.

While we’re proud to continue providing exams and glasses to students, we’re currently working to close a critical funding gap to keep this momentum going. Your support ensures more children receive the vision care they need to succeed in the classroom and beyond.

We have two Vision Field Trips happening this week. For many of these students, this will be their first time seeing clearly in the classroom!

Access to vision care is more than just a health service, it’s a critical part of learning, confidence, and opportunity. You can help make this possible. Your support directly impacts students by giving them the tools they need to succeed.

We need your help!

Our pediatric program is growing—and that’s a good thing. More students are getting the eye care they need to succeed. But we’ve officially exhausted funding for student exams, and 175 students are still scheduled for Vision Field Trips this semester. To close this gap, we need to raise $10,000 to ensure every child receives the care and glasses they need.

$60 = one student’s exam
$1,250 = an entire class

With state testing around the corner, clear vision can make all the difference.

Every gift helps a child see their world—and their potential—more clearly. Will you help us close the gap?

We are so grateful to KindSight for their incredible generosity and support of the half Helen Eye Clinic! They donated and sorted through hundreds of frames to help us provide quality, stylish eyewear to the patients we serve.

Thank you, KindSight, for helping us bring clearer vision and brighter futures to those who need it most!

Another half Helen Cooking Challenge is officially a WRAP (pun intended)! From butter chicken to strawberry crepes and everything in between, our team absolutely delivered. We love these moments that bring us together, give us a chance to have some fun, and of course, share some seriously good food. Who would have guessed that the half Helen team was such a talented culinary crew! We’re already cooking up our next challenge… any guesses on what the theme should be?

Last week, we hosted our very first Vision Field Trip of 2026! We welcomed 24 students from Lockhart ISD to the half Helen Eye Clinic, where they received comprehensive vision care and prescription glasses.

A huge thank you to Warby Parker’s Pupil Project for supporting our Vision Field Trip initiative and helping make access to eye care possible. We’re excited to have several more field trips scheduled in the coming weeks—stay tuned!
