The Giving Society
The Children’s Eye Foundation of AAPOS is honored to recognize donors whose generosity advances our mission to protect and restore children’s sight. Through our Giving Society, supporters are acknowledged annually for their commitment to ensuring every child has access to quality eye care. The Giving Society was approved by the CEF Board of Directors in 2025 and begins this calendar year. Recognition will begin at the 2026 Annual Meeting and in the 2026 Annual report.
