Conexus is honored to receive a $25,000 grant award from the Jenkins Foundation in support of the overall goals of the Kids 20/20 Campaign. The contribution will be used to further elevate children’s vision as a health priority as it pertains to educational success and support the science and infrastructure to transform pilot programming into a model for statewide service. Conexus is pleased to add the Jenkins Foundation to the growing list of supporters who are investing in education by responding to the call to help remove poor vision as a barrier to classroom success.
