Saturdays are Sweet! Thank you to our mighty volunteers who helped us harvest 54 pounds of sweet potatoes. 🍠

The produce will bring the flavor of fall to our neighborhood senior center and area community pantries. It’s absolutely amazing what abundance a few small potato slips from Urban Harvest can yield.

Thank you everyone who contributes to this nurturing space!

👓✨ For years, aramco has been an outstanding champion of the Houston Health Foundation and the See to Succeed program — helping bring vision care to children who need it most.
Since the program’s inception, See to Succeed has cared for over 122,000 students, giving them free eye exams and glasses, made possible in part due to Aramco’s unwavering support. 🎒📚

We're deeply grateful for this partnership and excited to continue working together to build brilliant futures — one child at a time. 💙

It’s National Vision Awareness Month, and the Houston Health Foundation encourages you to pay attention to your children’s eye health and ensure they receive regular eye examinations. Focused eyes focus the mind.

The American Optometric Association recommends:

• Infants should receive an in-person comprehensive eye and vision assessment between 6 and 12 months of age for the prevention and/or early diagnosis and treatment of sight-threatening eye conditions and to evaluate visual development.

• Preschoolers should receive at least one in-person, comprehensive eye exam between the ages of 3 and 5 to prevent or diagnose any condition that may have long-term effects.

• School-aged children (T to 4G years) should receive a comprehensive in-person exam prior to entering the first grade and annually thereafter.
