The mission of Prevent Blindness Texas is to prevent blindness and preserve sight. Our vision is vision — making healthy eyes a priority in Texas.
Prevent Blindness Texas is focused on advocating for improved health equity, empowering children, adults, and seniors to experience life at the highest level, and improving overall health, including physical and mental health, by preventing vision loss and addressing eye health issues across the entire health spectrum.
You can help us achieve this!

It’s important to consult with a tax advisor or financial professional to understand the tax implications of making a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD).

Make a Gift of Stock
Giving stock that has been held for more than 12 months offers two-fold tax savings: a tax deduction for the full fair market value on the date of the gift, and capital gains can be avoided. It’s important to consult with a tax advisor or financial professional to understand the tax implications of giving stock.
