Vision Care Activity for 2013
By Janet May | KEX Kids Fund Board Member
Dear Donors,
Thank you for helping us make this a successful year for the KEX Kids Fund and continuing our goal of providing vision care for all eligible children requesting our help!
In 2013, your support helped us raise nearly $180,000 to provide both hearing and vision care for needy children in Oregon and SW Washington. Most of our operating expenses for 2014 are pledged and collected during our annual Thanksgiving Fundraiser. We received $110,443 during our November 2012 fundraiser to be used for our $160,000 budget for 2014. Our funds are kept in one account and are used for both of our Hearing and Vision Care programs.
Vision Care Program Services expenses for 2013 were $72,643.35 and provided services for 892 children. The KEX Kids Fund children received vision care services valued at over $290,000. We continue to be able to provide vision care services to all qualified children who request our help and have no other options for vision care. Our contact at the Oregon Lions Sight and Hearing Foundation, Kerith Vance, receives Thank You notes form children receiving KEX Kids Fund vision care which we are attaching to this report.
Thank you again for helping us bring sight to needy children in Oregon and SW Washington.
