Circle of Sight Giving Program

The Missouri Lions Eye Research Foundation is dedicated to preserving and restoring sight. However, we can't take on the challenge alone. With the generous support of donors like you, the Foundation is able to protect thousands against eyesight loss due to disease, disorder or injury.

We invite you to partner with us in our fight against blindness by joining the Circle of Sight program. With your donation of $100 or more, you can help someone right in your own backyard, and at the same time, be recognized for your generosity by the Foundation. All Circle of Sight members receive recognition in our Perspectives quarterly newsletter and a Circle of Sight lapel pin.

For $2,500 you will cover the processing fees for one cornea transplant, helping to give someone the "gift of sight." Champion Level members also receive a Circle of Sight fleece and car magnet.

Leader Level

Your donation of $1,000 will cover the average cost of one individual receiving treatment through our Eye Care Assistance program. Leader Level members also receive a Circle of Sight fleece and car magnet.
