VSP Vision Care is excited to support the 9th Annual Sacramento Juneteenth Festival this weekend. The mobile clinic will be on site for two days to provide no cost comprehensive eye exams and eyewear to qualifying attendees.
In the summer of 2001, Sacramento’s Juneteenth festival joined the ranks of other American cities to celebrate, as well as educate, the community on one of America’s most important acts of legislation, the Emancipation Proclamation. Signed into law in 1863, the Emancipation Proclamation declared that all those enslaved were now free.
As a company committed to the community as well as to inclusion and diversity, we are proud to support the Juneteenth Festival and look forward to providing much needed services to those in need.
Yesterday morning, VSP Mobile Clinic Operations Manager Niki M. and Sacramento Juneteenth Festival founder, Gary Simon, discussed VSP’s support of the Festival with KCRA’s Adrianne Bankert.
