What Is a Program Partner?
A Salt and Light Program Partner gets trained to use the Global Vision 2020 USee Vision Kit™ to administer eye screening programs to provide prescription eyeglasses within minutes for less than $5 per person.
The USee Vision Kit was developed with Johns Hopkins University and the New England College of Optometry. It is endorsed by the International Agency for the Prevention of Blindness and has won awards from the United Nations for best innovative public health award.
Our program offers a cost-effective, portable, and scalable eye care solution to organizations and teams of various sizes. When you partner with Salt and Light Group and Global Vision 2020, you are not only on a mission to end the global vision epidemic; you are providing eyeglasses to real people who receive a real and continued benefit from your efforts.
This program can also be replicated by locals (who you train) which then provides a valuable resource to the community while also empowering locals and providing a livable wage or micro-business or ministry.
How Does a Program Work?
Whether you are solo with a heart for helping, a faith-based organization, NGO, government entity, or hospital, the finer points of the partnership are remarkably similar.
You plan a pilot outreach program and location plus purchase a USee Vision Kit™.
We train you and your team on how to use our lightweight solution, and off you go.
It’s that simple.
Your passion. Our tools
PLAN
Decide where you want to go with the USee Vision Kit System™. If you are a large NGO or faith-based organization with locations throughout the globe, you could pilot the USee Vision Kit System™ at any of them; if you are a smaller organization taking one trip to a remote location, we can help you do that too!
Purchase
Once you plan your pilot distribution, you’ll be ready to purchase the USee Vision Kit™. That purchase may be done over the phone, via our website, or by email. Included in the purchase is an End User License Agreement, this simply confirms that your organization will use the USee Vision Kit™ as intended—to bring vision to people without access to other vision care and in low resource nations.
Train
We’ll train you! In-person training takes approximately 3 hours and is the best possible training as you’ll get to use the USee™ in the class. With such a small staff, we can only supply in-person training at cost to the purchaser. We also offer training via Skype/Zoom (and other web-based video conferencing) in conjunction with a workbook/training manual. We’ve trained 30 partners through this approach with great success!
Distribute
Off you go. Take the USee Vision Kit™ to your destination, set up your screening clinic and distribute up to 500 prescription eyeglasses to people living without access to basic vision care!
