From April 25th to 27th, the Tzu Chi Vision Mobile Clinic visited Roeding Elementary School and Harvest Elementary School in Fresno to help children from low-income families in the Central Valley area of California have a chance at academic success unhampered by vision issues.
As the number of COVID-19 infections slowed in the U.S., Tzu Chi volunteers resumed the Mobile Vision Clinic in school districts in El Monte, CA, where they prescribed new eyeglasses for students from disadvantaged families. The kids couldn’t wait to put on their new glasses, and laughed heartily behind their masks, now that they could see the world clearly again.
As digital learning became the norm during the pandemic, children were straining their eyes more and lacking free services from their schools. Even before the onset of COVID-19, many students didn’t receive the proper vision care needed to succeed. Tzu Chi’s Mobile Vision Clinic brings optometrists on-site to schools, delivering top of the line services to students who need it most. In October of 2021, students at Walter Francis Bishop Elementary were able to get their eyesight checked and many of them were excited at the prospect of receiving free glasses.
On September 15, 2021, as part of Tzu Chi Medical Foundation’s outreach in Southern California, the Tzu Chi Vision Mobile Clinic traveled to a Pacific Clinics location in Santa Fe Springs, Los Angeles County, to offer vision tests and prescription glasses for those in need of them.

Following our 2019 TIMA Global Forum, Tzu Chi volunteers embarked on another journey to deliver two brand new Vision Mobile units to New York City.
September 29, 2019, was a special day for the Las Vegas Tzu Chi Service Center for several reasons. Not only was it a day for dental outreach at the Salvation Army to benefit the homeless community in Las Vegas, but it was also the first-ever vision outreach to be conducted in Las Vegas by Tzu Chi.
Hope For Home is a year-round service center for homeless individuals which was founded by Volunteers of America Los Angeles (VOALA). Hope For Home opened their doors last year in Pomona, California, and they now provide shelter for over 100 people.
