Detroit senior citizens and other underserved populations in the city have access to low-cost high-quality eye care, thanks to a nonprofit founded earlier this year. And Samer Alfahad — a Fall 2022 College of Business graduate — is one of the people involved in starting the new organization.

Alfahad, a marketing major and first-generation college student, said his COB lessons in entrepreneurship and writing business plans — Alfahad gives a special shout out to Lecturer Marcus Harris’ “Entrepreneurial Thinking & Behavior” course — prepared him to assist in launching Eye Care for Detroit alongside his mentor, American Advantage Home Care President and CEO Cleamon Moorer, who hired Alfahad as a communications intern at their Dearborn-based main office in 2021. Eye Care for Detroit’s mission is to provide access to eye care for Detroit’s homebound community and underserved populations.
