In an exclusive interview with entrepreneur and TOMS founder, Blake Mycoskie, readers are inspired to step forward and help those with a vision impairment who may not have the financial support to seek the help they need. Mycoskie, speaking on his inspiring TOMS Eyewear from his trips, explains: “I saw people begging on the street. The social worker told me they were once employed, but then they developed a cataract and couldn’t work and had to start begging. I saw the real effects of vision impairment in the developing world.”
This campaign was made possible with the support of the American Speech Language Hearing Association, Hear the World Foundation, New Eyes for the Needy, Cochlear Americas, American Optometric Association, Blake Mycoskie, Bright Focus Foundation, Phonak, Eargo, Oasis Medical and many more.
