Free Children's Glasses Initiatives

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Clearly Continues to Commit to Free Glasses for Kids

— September 9, 2021 — Marketing
In light of Ontario's recent announcement that optometrists will withdraw insured eye services for children and seniors, Canadian eyewear brand, Clearly, has stepped up to the plate with its ongoing commitment to providing children under the age of ten with free glasses through its Free Glasses for Kids initiative. Clearly is dedicated to "eradicating poor vision and bringing everyone access to the eyewear they need to see the amazing things in their lives."

To further the brand's mission of making eyewear accessible and with Myopia (nearsightedness) on the rise in children, Clearly is boosting its effort through its Buy One, Give One program. For every pair of glasses purchased, the brand will donate a pair to someone in need.

As consumers continue to demand more philanthropic initiatives from brands, companies like Clearly are setting themselves apart with their extraordinary social good programs--winning consumer loyalty and brand recognition.
