Know the Glow is a global nonprofit leader in raising awareness of leukocoria (the Glow) and the childhood blinding diseases it can indicate. We work globally to eliminate preventable childhood blindness through early detection and treatment of these conditions.
Our Work... In Action
Know The Glow is working globally to eliminate preventable childhood blindness through targeted digital campaigns in local languages, providing adaptable resources to partners worldwide, and sharing impactful stories. We also connect partners, guide families to local care, engage students and volunteers, and sustain long-term outreach through ambassadors and a post-treatment support program.
Our Campaign Results
Know The Glow has made remarkable progress toward its mission of eliminating preventable childhood blindness by elevating awareness of leukocoria. Its multilingual, region-specific digital campaigns—from Oceania to Sub‑Saharan Africa—have registered tens of millions of ad impressions and reached millions of families worldwide. Bolstered by a global network of medical advisors, local ambassadors, and community partners, KTG ensures early detection and access to eye care in underserved regions. Grounded in the simple yet powerful act of recognizing “The Glow” in flash photos, their educational work has already led to earlier diagnoses and life-changing treatment for children—helping to prevent blindness on a global scale.
