Children climb on board a mobile vision clinic to receive a vision exam from an eye doctor and have the chance to pick out their own frames. The glasses are usually made on-site and are provided to the child before the end of the day. KVFL bridges the gap between the need and the solution, assisting an under-served population where it is most convenient: in schools and at school-related or community-related events. 479920 0 0 Awareness and Education - Raising awareness and educating parents is critical to solving the vision crisis for children in the United States. Most parents do not think about vision as a need for their child; it is an invisible problem that often goes unresolved. EVF works with schools to bring awareness to the importance of good vision through educational programs for student, parents, and teachers. 0 0 0 2768631 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 24 0 1 25 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 11 7 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 X Becky Palm 2144964316 13515 N Stemmons Fwy Dallas TX 75234 Kevin Rupp Chair 2 X X 0 0 0 Marty Bassett Director 1 X 0 0 0 Jayanth Bhuvaraghan Director 1 X 0 0 0 Patrick Esquerre Director 1 X 0 0 0 Tony Fleo Director 1 X 0 0 0 Dawn Friedkin Director 1 X 0 0 0 Rick Gadd Director 1 X 0 0 0 Susan Hoff Director 1 X 0 0 0 Dr Stephanie Johnson-Brown Director 1 X 0 0 0 M Kathleen Murphy Director 1 X 0 0 0 Becky Palm President 40 X 0 0 0 David Milan Secretary 2 X 0 0 0 Nchacha Etta Treasurer 2 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 3528246 1237557 3528246 Vision service fees 900099 54738 54738 0 0 0 0 0 0 54738 23242 0 0 23242 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 3606226 54738 0 23242 169627 169627 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 712215 650947 0 61268 31014 28332 0 2682 101449 92723 0 8726 67660 61839 0 5821 0 0 0 0 6346 4066 2280 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1000 0 1000 0 158682 158682 0 0 148761 145022 0 3739 97787 62414 10475 24898 156583 103985 48427 4171 0 0 0 0 301 301 0 0 41919 8351 17848 15720 0 0 0 0 12308 9352 2455 501 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 44943 44814 129 0 28273 23006 1676 3591 Eyeglass lenses and frames 1053457 1053457 0 0 Mobile clinic repairs & maintenance 13333 13333 0 0 Clinic supplies & printing 139655 135371 1562 2722 3009 3009 0 0 2988322 2768631 85852 133839 2002484 953597 0 865832 316413 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 5675 2999 802724 728036 100631 74688 149097 2450502 3123719 3798199 378998 281876 36000 18000 0 0 414998 299876 X 2098138 2958973 610583 539350 2708721 3498323 3123719 3798199 617904 171698 0 0 0 0 X 0 1 X 1 0 X 3796288 4167392 4752315 6162229 3528246 22406470 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 3796288 4167392 4752315 6162229 3528246 22406470 10006752 12399718 177 235 234 549 23242 24437 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 22430907 638429 0.55280 0.514 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 802724 728036 74688 0 0 0 0 74688 0 0 X 5252064 170698 1475140 0 0 1645838 3606226 0 0 0 3606226 4462462 1475140 0 0 0 1475140 2987322 1000 0 1000 2988322 Schedule D, Part X, Line 2 The Foundation is exempt from federal income tax under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code"), except to the extent it has unrelated business income. In addition, the Foundation has been determined by the Internal Revenue Service not to be a private foundation within the meaning of Section 509(a) of the Code. For the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Foundation had no net unrelated business income. Accordingly, no provision for income tax has been provided. GAAP requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Foundation's tax return to determine whether the tax positions are more likely than not of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more likely than not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. A reconciliation is not provided herein, as the beginning and ending amounts of unrecognized benefits are zero, with no interim additions, reductions or settlements. The Foundation is relying on its tax-exempt status and its adherence to all applicable laws and regulations to preserve that status. However, the conclusions regarding accounting for uncertainty in income taxes will be subject to review and may be adjusted at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, ongoing analysis of tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof. The Foundation recognizes interest and penalties, in any, related to uncertain tax positions as income tax expenses. The Foundation's information returns filed are generally subject to examination for three years after the later of the due date or date of filing. 1 Optometry Cares - The AOA Foundation 243 North Lindbergh Boulevard St Louis MO 63141 237292391 75000 0 To support Healthy Eyes Healthy Children programs which offer opportunities for optometrists to collaborate with community resources so that vision care is provided to children and recognized as a vital component of their health.
