211 Changes Lives - lives like Paula’s. Racked by severe daily headaches due to poor eyesight, Paula didn’t have vision insurance to address the problem. When she called 211, a specialist there connected her to a nonprofit that paid for her eye exam and glasses. Now, Paula is pain-free and seeing clearly.
“I can’t say enough about how nice they are at 211, They are so kind.” -Paula
