Donor advised funds
Your giving account is already funded. Put it to work.
If you have a donor advised fund with Fidelity Charitable, Schwab Charitable, Vanguard Charitable or another sponsor, you have already taken the tax deduction. Recommending a grant to Open Eyes Beyond Border takes about two minutes and costs you nothing extra today. It simply turns money set aside for good into eye exams, glasses and school years.
Why a DAF grant goes far here
The decision is already made
The money in your fund is committed to charity. The only question left is where it does the most good per dollar.
100% reaches the mission
OEBB has no paid staff. Board members and volunteers are unpaid, so your grant buys glasses, exams and tuition, not overhead.
Set it and sustain it
Most sponsors let you schedule a recurring annual grant. One setting today funds a mission season every year.
A $1,000 grant sends 10 children to school for a full year. A $5,000 grant helps carry an entire vision mission.

Yes. Note Student Scholarships, Vision Care or Disaster Relief in the grant recommendation, or email us and we will apply it exactly as you intend.

OEBB volunteers are happy to help, but we are not tax or legal advisors. Please confirm the specifics of your situation with yours.
Every route leads to the same place: a child who can see and learn.
