Smith Optics Supports Goggles For Docs

NEW AND USED EYEWEAR DONATED TO MEDICAL STAFF ACROSS THE US

Padua/Portland, OR – April 2, 2020 – Safilo Group, a worldwide leader in the design, manufacturing and distribution of eyewear, announces that its own Smith brand has joined Goggles for Docs, a movement to support local and national personal protective equipment (PPE) shortages across the US.  Smith will provide ski goggles to healthcare workers who currently have no eyewear protection while treating patients in the wake of COVID-19.

The Goggles for Docs program materialized in just a few days to support hospital need, and is based solely on volunteer support and product donation. Smith is currently sending new and used goggles to fulfill hospital requests, and will continue to promote the program, encouraging its community to volunteer and donate on the individual level.

Beginning this week, Goggles for Docs is hosting a virtual Après Ski Music Series of live-streamed sets by featured artists – including Stephen Kellogg and Pete Kilpatrick Band – where listeners can tune in and donate goggles or cash contributions that will directly purchase additional protective gear for medical staff.
