Face Friends Foundation mission is to help alleviate the problem of food insecurity in our communities and that is why we are currently fundraising to raise funds to help set up a hot food pantry in the community. We hope to serve 800 meals a week for needy individuals. In the mean time we are donating whatever food supplies you donate to us to another great community organization, the North Gwinnett Cooperative. If you would like to help us reach our goal of setting up our hot food pantry please donate to our Community Hot Food Pantry Fund.

Please help by going to our Walmart registry and purchase a backpack and or school supplies.

New Eyes is expanding its mission and we encourage all health advocates in your state to be made aware of our program so that low-income children and adults can obtain new eyeglasses and the clear vision they need to build better lives.
There is NO charge for New Eyes services. There is no sharing of information. There are no citizenship questions. There are no age restrictions. We operate our program with donated funds to purchase new prescription eyeglasses for people living at 250% or less of the Federal Poverty Guidelines. Children who receive free or reduced-fee school lunches are automatically eligible for our program (and they receive two pairs of glasses each!).
We just require that the individual hold a current eye examination prescription (dated within last 24 months).
Please spread the word about our service in your community and among your organization! If you belong to a professional network or Facebook group for organizations that could also use help with free eyeglasses we would urge you to share our details.
You may email us with any questions or feedback about our program. We are here to help you in the important work you do – and we are always happy to hear from you!
