Vision Is Priceless

09/18/2025

✨ Meet Morgan, our Adult Program Clinic Manager, and one of the many reasons Vision Is Priceless feels like family.

At our recent clinic, Victoria came in for a much-needed exam and new glasses. Her little girl tagged along—stealing everyone's hearts... and then falling fast asleep mid-appointment. Without missing a beat, Morgan scooped her up so Victoria could finish picking out her new frames stress-free.

Morgan is the perfect example of the compassion that drives our mission—always ready to step in, wear many hats, and make sure every client feels cared for. ❤️

👉Kindness is 20/20 and we love to SEE it—drop a ❤️ if you agree!

Thanks to the incredible generosity of our community, we exceeded our $15,000 Sight in Schools Matching Gift Challenge goal!

A BIG heartfelt thank you to everyone who donated—your support makes it possible for children across Northeast Florida to receive life-changing vision screenings, eye exams, and glasses right at school. 💛👓

And a special thank you to our dear friend and Matching Gift sponsor, Gloria Glisson, whose generosity multiplied the impact for students in need.
