        Did India vote against Israel at the UN. Or this some #povertyPORN by some billionaire. I have hiked in the Himalayan mountains, the poorest remotest parts of India. What village have they not seen glasses?

        I can’t leave a moment without my glasses. Can’t even imagine how happy this adorable lady felt when she realised there was way to see the world clear again. I wish I had enough to help them all, but my pocket is too small. Maybe someday. 💗 #BeThankful

        Warby Parker is doing their part by distributing eyeglasses in South American countries. For each pair sold they provide a pair to people without access to eyeglasses. But more companies need to step up.
