Eyemart Express Partners with the Jennifer Hudson Show
The national optical retailer Eyemart Express partnered with The Jennifer Hudson Show during Teacher Appreciation Week to surprise educators from Title I schools with substantial gifts. As part of this collaborative initiative, a second-grade teacher in Los Angeles received new glasses and $10,000 USD for classroom supplies and student learning experiences.
Through their collaboration, Eyemart Express and The Jennifer Hudson Show are also launching a summer-long social media contest on the show's Facebook and Instagram accounts. This venture will invite audiences to nominate their favorite teachers for a chance to win one of five $1,000 prizes to help prepare for the upcoming school year.
Eyemart Express notes that it offers 20% discount to educators and school staff such as janitors, bus drivers, and office administrators at all of its 270 stores nationwide.
