We've been keeping a secret!
The KCFEC team and board are thrilled to announce that we have been named a 2026 United Way of Greater Kansas City's Impact 100 organization!
This award comes with unrestricted funding and opportunities to further elevate our mission through United Way. We’re incredibly grateful to begin this impactful partnership.
Together, we’re creating a more resilient community where everyone has opportunities to thrive.
Thank you to the @unitedwaygkc !
Clinic Update!
We will be closed on Wednesday, May 20th. You can catch the team at Coffee and Connections at the Bluford Branch of the Kansas City Public Library and the Evergy Economic Relief Pilot Program Senior event!
Our team had a great time at the @growingfutureseec Wellness Fair last week! We were able to share information with their families about vision health and how they can find us!
Bonus fun: the kiddos had the best time running through the bubble machine!
Another Saturday Library Clinic in the books!
Last Saturday, the KCFEC team and volunteers provided 15 exams + glasses and 21 additional community members were able to order glasses with their current prescriptions!
Thank you so much to the @kclibrary for hosting us and to the incredible staff at the Lucile H. Bluford branch!
Attention community service providers!

Our team and board had a blast and cannot thank everyone enough for coming out to support vision care in Kansas City!
