The Fresh Air Fund (FAF) is an independent, non-profit organization that has provided free summer vacations to more than 1.7 million New York City children from low-income families since 1877. OneSight, A Luxottica Group Foundation, is a family of charitable vision care programs that provides free vision care and new eyewear to those in need. Together, they work to make a difference in people’s lives.

For the fifth summer in a row, OneSight offered to bring their traveling optical clinic to FAF camps to help many Fresh Air children who do not have access to affordable vision care. This summer, OneSight volunteers screened 3,295 children and counselors, gave 1,757 eye exams, and made 1,629 pairs of eyeglasses.
