Help our Veterans with “Vision to Share” and a Giveaway

by MHSjennie on September 25, 2014

I am sure we all can show our extreme gratitude for our Veterans. I am always thinking about how brave they must be to risk their lives for little old me and the rest of us every day. I wouldn’t have the courage myself to do that, but am SO thankful to those who do!

Today, there are 21.2 million U.S. veterans and 1.5 million veterans have a vision-threatening eye disease. Many have low vision and 160,000 are legally blind. Not only can we have vision issues as we age, but Veterans can be at an increased risk for eye injury as a result of their time in combat. I am working with VSP Vision Care, who are on a mission to help people see!!! I couldn’t imagine losing my sight and I would love to help in any way that I can, especially if it means giving back to the Veterans who have so selflessly given to me and my family. 

 VSP Vision Care, created “Vision to Share” to change the life of a veteran through America’s VetDogs. With your help, VSP will donate $50,000 to train and match a guide dog with a veteran whose vision is impaired.

Sounds pretty awesome right?! So, what can you do to help? All you need to do is share! Visit See Much More and click on the “Vision to Share” video. Every time you share the video, VSP will donate to the care and training of a guide dog – up to $50,000! 

America’s Vet Dogs provide highly trained guide dogs to help veterans lead active, independent lives. It costs $50,000 to raise and train each dog, given to the veteran at no cost.

  • Puppies are trained from birth for two years.  
  • America’s VetDogs matches each dog’s skills and personality to the disabled veteran’s needs.
  • Dogs typically work with the veteran until they are 10 years old.
  • Retired dogs are adopted so they live long and full lives! 

What are you waiting for?! Share, share, share away and give back to those who have given to us, our VETERANS! Hashtag #SeeMuchMore

The ones i have are really low quality. I've always wanted a nice pair of shades that I could wear and take care of.
