/PRNewswire/ -- LION READS held its first Advisory Board
meeting on January 19, 2021. The
Advisory Board is comprised of women representing various channels
of the Optometric market. LION READS was created by James Vena, interim CEO and Executive Operating
Partner of LION Eye Group. "I am really excited about the LION
READS Advisory Board, and with the help and support of the LION Eye
Group, and its vendor partners, we hope to participate in ending
systemic economic inequality. The best way to give back to the
community is to help the underserved and underrepresented facing
financial injustice rise above it through education. Eyes are the
doorway to knowledge and our goal is to empower at risk youth. We
have the ability and responsibility to help them grow socially,
culturally and psychologically, and end the cycle."
The mission of LION READS is to positively impact the lives of
children facing economic injustice through literacy, by providing
access to eye care and vision correction eyewear, promoting
empowerment through education, and securing self-confidence for
greater achievement.
The Advisory Board includes Gail
Correale, Susan Brunell,
Susan Fisher, and Lori Landrio of LION Eye Group. The remaining
members include Robin Brush of
Safilo, Kristin Calimlim of Lafont
USA, Phaedra Chernoff of L'Amy USA, Julie Dunn
of ABB Optical, and Heidi Orlando of
WestGroupe.
