Operation KidSight is a 501c3 community service project, funded by grants and donations. The goal is to screen children in New Mexico that are 3-7 years old for amblyogenic risk factors, to fund eye examinations and treatment for referred children whose families can't afford it.

The Silver City Woman's Club is a Community Service non-profit that donates to many service organizations in our community. The club provides families in need with diapers to newborns, school supplies to local students through the annual School Supply Drive, food for the weekend Bag Lunch project, infant clothing through the annual Baby Shower event, and food distribution. The Silver City Woman's' Club also provides scholarships to students that attend WNM University and many other community service projects.

If you are a community service non-profit and would like more information on the club's donation policies, visit the club's website at http://silvercitywomansclub.org/ or contact community outreach chair Vera MacGregor at 575.534.0505
