In its first year, the ABB Cares program will highlight and celebrate organizations throughout the country that have improved the quality of life in their communities. Five organizations will be selected to receive a $1,000 grant.

“At ABB Optical Group, we like to think of ourselves as a community of leaders helping to make life better, and our new ABB Cares program is a direct reflection of our belief in the power of corporate giving and philanthropy,” says ABB Optical Group CEO Angel Alvarez. “We encourage all eyecare professionals to participate by nominating an organization near and dear to their community that they believe has made a positive impact and deserves recognition.”

Organizations do not need to focus on eye health to qualify. Applications must be completed and submitted online by Friday, September 12.
