Our Philadelphia team was recently joined by volunteers from our amazing partners at the National Board of Medical Examiners, where they helped us provide new glasses to students from Frances E. Willard School and Global Leadership Academy Charter School Southwest! Thank you to NBME for being such wonderful partners. We are so grateful for the $25,000 grant award which will support vital eye exams and glasses for students in the #Philadelphia area. #eyecare #eyecareprofessional #visiontolearn #Pennsylvania
