The Oakland-Craig Inclusive Playground Committee would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to Northeast Eye Care and Dr. Brandon Ridder for their incredibly generous $1,000 donation to the Oakland-Craig Inclusive Playground project!
For decades, Northeast Eye Care has been dedicated to serving families across northeast Nebraska with compassionate, high-quality vision care. With clinic locations in West Point, Oakland, and Pender, their commitment to accessibility ensures that even rural Nebraska communities have access to exceptional eye care close to home. Their mission centers on helping patients βsee the world with clarity and confidence,β while delivering personalized, high-quality care that puts patients and families first.
That commitment to improving quality of life aligns perfectly with the vision behind the Oakland-Craig Inclusive Playground. Just as Northeast Eye Care works to ensure people of all ages can see clearly and live fully, this playground is being built to ensure every childβof every abilityβcan fully engage in recreation, connecting with friends and gaining a sense of belonging.
Since 1951, Northeast Eye Care has proudly served the region with advanced technology, personalized treatment, and compassionate care tailored to each patientβs needs. Their continued growth and multiple locations demonstrate a deep commitment to meeting the needs of the communities they serve.
Beyond providing excellent care, Northeast Eye Care is also known throughout the area for being quick to step up in support of local fundraisers, youth activities, school programs, and community events. Whether sponsoring a team, supporting an event, or helping a cause move forward, they consistently invest back into the communities that support them.
Your generosity helps bring us one step closer to creating a space where all children can play side-by-side, building friendships, confidence, and lifelong memories.
Thank you, Northeast Eye Care, for helping us bring this vision to life and for all you do to support the communities of northeast Nebraska.
