Visions of Vision

Christians Encouraging Christians, Inc. (CEC) was the recipient of a generous donation of 850 pairs of eyewear from an anonymous out-of-state optician. When making the donation, the donor suggested that CEC use the eyewear to help alleviate the problem of those experiencing financial difficulty in obtaining proper eye care. After careful consideration of the available research in regards to eye care needs, CEC could envision a program where people could receive much needed vision care, thus the “Visions of Vision” program was created.

To make the “Visions of Vision” program a reality, CEC formed a strategic alliance with Mustang Optical, Mustang Kiwanis and Dr. Thomas Wolf, Ophthalmologist, for the purpose of serving all the needs of the patient. CEC supplies the frames, Dr. Wolf performs the needed exams, Mustang Kiwanis furnishes the funds for Mustang School students, and Mustang Optical takes the necessary measurements, makes the lenses, and fits the eyewear at a substantially reduced price so that the funds will benefit the most people. To meet expenses not covered by the strategic alliance, Caddo Electric Cooperative Operation Roundup Program awarded CEC a $2000.00 grant.

If you or someone you know is in need of eye care and is experiencing financial difficulties, please complete the “Visions of Vision” application below and submit it to CEC.

Eyewear Assists Young Graduate

CEC was contacted by Mustang Optical, a partner in the “Visions of Vision” project, to let us know of Lexi’s urgent need for eyewear. She was in the process of completing her final year of high school and needed new glasses, but due to some unusual circumstances was not in a financial position to purchase them. With the help of our partners, Dr. Thomas Wolf, Caddo Electric Cooperative, Mustang Optical and Mustang Kiwanis Club, we were able to help make her Senior year a little bit more exciting and successful by providing her a new pair of glasses to wear to finish out her high school years. Congratulations Lexi on your graduation!!!
