WHERE WE SERVE
Good vision is the heart and hub of the critical human needs of healthcare, education, employment, and interpersonal relationships. Â
UTAH
PARK CITY VISION CENTER
Serving Summit and Wasatch Counties
The Hope Alliance Vision Center (HAVC) in Park City was established to meet the growing vision healthcare needs of Summit and Wasatch residents without access to eye healthcare.
​
The HAVC at People's Health Clinic is the basis for a new standard of vision health care in Summit and Wasatch Counties. The HAVC is the hub of vision care for our growing community, whose large workforce population has no access to healthcare.
​
MOAB VISION CENTER
Serving San Juan, Grand, and Emery Counties
In 2017, our journey to bring vision care to Moab, Utah began with pop-up clinics at the Moab Free Health Clinic. After some time, we realized that the need for our services in Moab was vast and that we could transform the lives of many Utahns by expanding our efforts.
INTERNATIONAL
UGANDA
Bwindi Impenetrable Forest
Of the 8 optometrists in Uganda, 7 practice in Kampala. Uganda has one of the world's lowest ophthalmologists per capita ratios, 1:1.5 million. Hope Alliance recognized this need and began running vision clinics in Bwindi in 2017. The outpouring of love and sense of community inspires us to keep returning. In fact, our partners at the Bwindi Community Hospital and the Kellerman Foundation broke ground in 2023 on a permanent Hope Alliance Vision Center in Bwindi. Our mission is to create sustainable care models wherever we serve.

GUATEMALA
Region of Lake Atitlan, Department of Solola
Guatemala, despite its beauty, is a country in need in so many ways. A small village near Lake Atitlan in Guatemala is one place Hope Alliance knows well. Our vision expeditions to this region has helped people here to see more clearly for more than 15 years.
MEXICO
Puerto Peñasco, Sonora
Puerto Penasco is a beautiful coastal town in northern Mexico, which is typically inundated with tourists who enjoy the beach and beautiful weather. Despite the high volume of tourists and the seemingly vibrant city atmosphere, the need for many locals is great, especially the children. Hope Alliance has partnered with Vistamerica and the Puerto Penasco Rotary Club in conducting very well attended vision clinics. The clinics serve hundreds and provide glasses to adults and school children alike, helping to improve their vision and overall quality of life.
