Everychild’s 2023 grant will fund a ground-breaking 2-year pilot program with Vision to Learn and Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles (CHLA), utilizing 3 new mobile vision clinics and next-generation telehealth technologies to provide a multi-tiered “pyramid of care” to an estimated 19,000 K-12 students in the Compton Unified School District. Approximately 5,000 students will be prescribed and provided with new eyeglasses, and the estimated 10-20% of students examined by VTL optometrists identified as needing a higher level of eye care will now have access to CHLA ophthalmologists in real time.
The Everychild Foundation makes one grant per year of $1 million. The grant is funded through annual contributions from members.
Members become skilled in advocating for policies/legislation benefiting children and youth and help decision-makers better understand the ramifications their actions have on young people.
Over 90% of our budget goes to the children. No fundraising galas. Each member contributes $6K per year which we pool to create an annual $1 million grant.
Membership in the Everychild Foundation (EIN #31-1693985) is open to all women who are interested in helping Los Angeles area children in need. Click below to learn more.
