The Etnia Barcelona Foundation is launching OPTICIANS WITH YOU: a new solidarity project which aims to help all those who have seen their economic capacity reduced due to the COVID19 crisis.
Since our foundation in 2006, we have supported a total of 50.000 families, paying a particular attention to the youngest, given the direct relationship that exists between vision problems, school failure and social integration.
Today more than ever, we are forced to continue helping and, aware of this, we have decided to extend our program of action with this solidarity program, which will allow many families to have free access to prescription glasses, thanks to the collaboration of our trusted opticians. The Foundation has always defended the principle that everyone deserves good visual health and with this everyone keeps improving their quality of life.
Since June 1st, we have made available a total of 150.000 frames to our solidarity opticians to offer them to those who need them most. Since then, partners have continued to join this initiative.
If the Covid19 crisis brought you into this situation or if you know someone who might need it, you can reach our Foundation via the following email pticianswithyou@etniabarcelonafoundation.organd and we will inform you about which optician to contact.
