A creative community of giving.

Compassionate Eye Foundation is an innovative non-profit organization founded on the principle that creative people as a community could and want to make a positive difference in the world. See the movie.

It all starts with education.

It is our belief that education is the cornerstone of change. It is through promoting education, that we plan to help developing communities around the world become sustainable and healthy.

One classroom built, one world explored

Creatives gather once a year to give back.

How we do it. Each year on or around June 21st, the Summer Solstice, photographers and their crews around the world produce a one day stock photo shoot. The royalty revenues generated through image licensing at Getty Images are donated to CEF. This provides a significant portion of our funding model in addition to private and corporate donations.
