Project Vision Hawai'i is a Hawaii-based nonprofit organization operating within the hospitals and health care sector. Founded in 2007 by a local ophthalmologist and incorporated as a 501(c)(3) in 2011, the group runs a statewide mobile vision screening program designed to reach communities facing access-to-care challenges due to income, insurance gaps, geography, or cultural barriers. Its three mobile units travel across the islands and use imaging to detect eye conditions such as diabetic retinopathy, macular degeneration, glaucoma, and cataracts, with results reviewed by ophthalmologists for timely assessment. In addition to vision screenings, the organization has expanded into mobile hygiene services to support people experiencing homelessness and those affected by wildfires, including hot showers and related resources, with recent activity spanning Maui and other Hawaiian Islands.
