Kristi C., Guatemala (Aug. 2025)

We want to thank you for your incredible kindness and basically for coming to our rescue in July!  It was a wild adventure, considering we had never done this before and then when we said yes, everything seemed to hinder us moving forward.  But you all were WONDERFUL and truly made it all possible for us to fulfill our promises of bringing eye glasses into our areas!
I’ve attached a video and written story for you to get a little glimpse of the success of the vision clinics.  We ended up being able to serve 5 of our communities in Guatemala with vision testing and eye glasses.  One of the students that you trained, took everything you taught her to heart and truly became the leader of the vision station.  It was as if she received a full degree from Eye Doc in a Box!!  I was amazed to see the depth of all that she learned and implemented in such a short time.  I know that this will be an experience that shapes her education and career forever.  This moment with you all will also be the sweet story that we carry forward of how we added eye care to our healthcare development.  Thank you for being such an incredible surprise and helpful recourse to our mission and ministry!
Going forward, I would love to chat about how we can incorporate your trainings under calmer circumstances.  How do you normally handle this with other groups?
While bragging about you, I found out that you also know a mutual friend who serves in Nicaragua. She had fantastic things to say about you as well!
Again, thank you for everything.  Truly, you were a little (big) miracle in our mission and we are beyond grateful for your wisdom, resources, and attention.
