Spreading the Love Our friends at Lafayette Family Eye Care recently announced their 20/20 Giving Campaign, which includes a generous donation of $20,000 to Moncus Park!



“We’ve launched this giving campaign as a way to say thank you to our patients as well as the entire community for supporting us for over 22 years.” said Dr. Richard "Jim" Piccione, pediatric ophthalmologist and eye surgeon at Lafayette Family Eye Care.



The $20,000 donated by Lafayette Family Eye Care is to be used toward building an all-inclusive playground within the Park. This playground is something that everyone, regardless of age or ability, will be able to enjoy for decades to come, and is scheduled to be completed before the end of the year. Dr. Erica Lukasko, optometrist and family eye care specialist, notes, “It’s our sincere hope that our 20/20 Giving Campaign will help make life just a little brighter for everyone in our community.”
