#Givingtuesday and Every Day

#GivingTuesday is a wonderful day to think about others before the holiday season and promote community support through lifting up those around us, but shouldn’t we be doing our part to give back a little bit every time we choose to make a purchase…

As a small business, that’s how we feel at 4Sight iCare, and that is why a portion of the profit from every complete pair of glasses goes to support Optometry Giving Sight, a non-profit organization that provides vision to the less fortunate in a world-wide effort to eliminate preventable vision loss due to refractive error that we take for granted in more developed countries.  Vision is a precious gift and our most cherished sense, and we take the pledge to share a donation for every pair you choose seriously.  That’s why you’ll receive a card certifying our participation in the program with every pair you pick up: 

And again this holiday season we won’t just be donating to the worldwide community, but locally to Naperville’s Loaves & Fishes Food Pantry:  For every 4 food pantry donation items, you’ll $ave 40 dollars on the purchase of glasses!  Yes, the doctor is going to pay $10 of your bill for up to 4 canned or dried food items that you bring to donate the day you purchase your glasses.  Because this is a donation on your behalf directly from the doctor you CAN combine this $40 Savings with insurance savings at checkout.  We do ask that only participating patients who have an eye exam and purchase a complete pair of glasses ask to participate in this FOODraiser.  This is our second year collecting donations for Loaves & Fishes, and we want it to be a success for all the community members who turn to L&F for support this Winter.

So DONATE this #GivingTuesday to your favorite charity and participate in the biggest day for giving, but know that when it’s time to update your glasses, choose a location like 4Sight iCare that donates to organizations like OGS and local community services like L&F!
