EAGLES EYE MOBILEInspired by former Pro Bowl guard Jermane Mayberry, the Eagles Eye Mobile has been providing free vision screenings, exams, prescription eyeglasses and follow-up care for under- and uninsured youth in the community since 1996.

How It Works: The “eye doctor on wheels” travels to more than 120 schools annually, providing free vision care and prescription eyeglasses for youth who need it most.

Did You Know: Since 1996, 67% of youth treated on the Eagles Eye Mobile have needed glasses and more than 50,000 pairs have been provided.

SIGNATURE EYP MOBILE PROGRAMS

EAGLES BOOK MOBILEThe Eagles Book Mobile tackles literacy to give children a better field position in their lives. The program has been nurturing a love for reading in children, focusing on first through third grade students in an effort to ensure that children can read on grade level by the time they enter fourth grade.

How It Works: The Eagles Storybook Man travels to more than 280 sites annually where he conducts an interactive reading session with the children and provides each of them with a brand-new book to keep.

Each year, the entire Eagles organization comes together - players, coaches, leadership, staff - and teams up with a local Philadelphia elementary school to revitalize the vacant schoolyard. Everyone works together with shovels, paintbrushes, power drills and optimism in an effort to bring joy to the school community. EYP continues its commitment even after the playground is built by providing annual grants for its maintenance and student activities, as well as bringing its direct service programs to the school each year.

PLAYGROUND BUILD

Each year, more than 200 Philadelphia students compete in a day-long chess tournament at Lincoln Financial Field, culminating in an awards ceremony in the Eagles Locker Room.

GO GREEN INITIATIVE

The Eagles believe the path to sustainability is a journey, not a destination, which is why they developed their Go Green program in 2003 with the opening of Lincoln Financial Field.What started with a blue recycling bin under each employee’s desk has grown into a company-wide sustainability initiative that aims to reduce the organization’s overall impact on the environment in a financially-responsible manner.

With the help of partners and fans, the Eagles have been able to develop a multi-year curriculum and action plan that incorporates green energy production, recycling, composting, energy efficiency, reforestation and much more.The Eagles, who wear the color “green” with pride, view it as their responsibility to be leaders both on and off the football field.

SOLAR & WIND ENERGYIn March 2012, the Eagles and NRG announced a sustainable energy partnership which made the organization’s vision of clean power for Lincoln Financial Field a reality. When the project became fully operational in February 2013, it allowed the Eagles’ home in Philadelphia to be among the greenest major sports facilities in the world.
