OUR STORY

The idea of Eye See Color Project originated from a prior non-profit charity, About CommYounity. Our Executive Director, Jared, was searching for a community event to do with About CommYounity and saw that Color Blindness Awareness Day was approaching. While looking for another non-profit to partner with for this event, we were surprised at the lack of non-profits and awareness in the United States. Considering there are over 12 million people with some form of color blindness in the US, we felt that there should be a non-profit focused solely on color blindness, and that’s how Eye See Color Project came about.

FOUNDER

A native Floridian, Jared fell in love with community work when he was just a small child. Inspired by his family’s charity work, Jared quickly developed a deep passion to help others who were in need. This resolve stuck with him through college and through his work at Green Thumb Industries, where his key duties included Community Outreach. Jared hopes the lessons learned in the past will motivate him to bring his “A” game to Eye See Color Project and continue his passion to give back.
