SALT LAKE CITY and JUJA, Kenya—EyeCare4Kids, a non-profit organization dedicated to providing essential eyecare to underserved communities around the world, announced the opening of a comprehensive, state-of-the-art vision clinic at Kalimoni Mission Hospital in Kenya, Africa. With donations from individuals and corporations, EyeCare4Kids helped to build a new hospital wing and donated cutting-edge examination equipment, ensuring access to high-quality eyecare for local children and communities. "The new vision clinic at Kalimoni Mission Hospital, located in Kenya, was made possible because of the unwavering support of donors and the tireless efforts of so many of our partners and friends," said Joseph Carbone, founder of EyeCare4Kids.

"The clinic officially began serving patients in the summer, marking a significant milestone in the organization's mission to improve eye health around the world," Carbone said.

The project is several years in the making as EyeCare4Kids faced challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic. The hospital initially allocated a building to EyeCare4Kids, but the opportunity was delayed due to the pandemic. Despite these obstacles, the building was constructed and the EyeCare4Kids clinic is now officially open, ready to provide vital eyecare services to the community.

 
Carbone added, "The vision clinic at Kalimoni Mission Hospital is a leap forward in eyecare for the local residents and will empower the people of Kenya to become more self-reliant. EyeCare4Kids remains committed to its mission, striving to make a meaningful difference in the lives of individuals and communities around the world."
