Mission and programs · 2022

Mission

to prevent blindness and preserve sight

  • Public Education-informing the general public about the basic facts of eye care, health and safety, and motivating them to appropriate action; conducted through mass media such as television, radio, newspapers, and social media, through the distribution of Prevent Blindness publications and through responses to inquiries from the public. Thousands of Iowans participated in health education programs and received information and referral services. In addition we reached a potential audience of almost 1 million Iowans through social networking and media impressions.

    Expenses $75,569

  • Community Service-Sponsoring and promoting screening programs for the early detection of signs of eye trouble among preschool children, school age children, and adults, particularly amblyopia in children. Screenings were provided to over 25,000 individuals last year. Patient Services, eye glass and eye exam programs were provided to over 100 Iowans.

    Expenses $87,377

  • Professional Education-Serving as an authoritative source of information on the latest developments in vision and eye care so that eye care professionals, nurses, scientists, teachers, social workers, and others in the field of blindness prevention can better serve their respective clients. Vision screening training was provided to about 50 individuals.

    Expenses $25,977

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
