Article One

Article One is an independent eyewear company based in Flint, Michigan. They  produce handcrafted eyewear in Italy with complete brand transparency and a spotlight on the hands that craft our frames. Article One is known for supporting independent optical, giving back to community, and thoughtful design.

Founded originally as Aframe to raise awareness and funding for Vitamin A deficiency in developing nations. 

Article One has donated over $17,000 to Helen Keller International's vitamin A supplementation program thus far.

Most people are unaware that about 500,000 children globally go blind each year from Vitamin A deficiency, and half of those children die within 12 months as a result of Vitamin A deficiency. Even more astounding, it costs just one dollar for a year’s worth of supplements for one child. That means a one dollar donation to Helen Keller International will ensure at least one child will not die or go blind from vitamin A deficiency.
