You can support this important work by donating your used glasses for the mission at David’s Eyewear office.



The Legacy of David lives on. We actively donate used glassed to Zambia several times a year.



Recently David’s Eyewear gave Mission Zambia over five hundred glasses for vision care. This will facilitate other vision clinics in Zambia with current proprietor Rebecca Howden and other volunteers. 

The local hospital with a catchment of over 100,000 people had no equipment of any kind for vision care. As a result of David’s work, three pieces of vision care equipment were delivered to the Kapiri Mposhi general hospital.


According to the United Nations, vision is the world’s biggest health crisis with over two billion people in need of vision care. In seeking to bring vision care to under privileged individuals, David was miles ahead of the local health care system.

In 2017, David White headed to Zambia on a vision care mission.
In ten intensive days that often stretched late into the night, David examined and prescribed glasses for over five hundred people. For those in the remote areas, this was the only vision care ever received.
