The Red Glasses Movement was started in honor of a special 5-year-old girl, Audrey Louise. Audrey had Down syndrome and a congenital heart defect but these weren’t the only things that defined her. Audrey was defined by her bright Red Glasses, her crushing hugs and uninhibited determination! When Audrey passed away in 2018, her
family wanted to keep her vibrant way of life flowing. The Red Glasses Movement is Audrey’s living legacy. Tens of thousands of Red Glasses have been shared all over the world. The mission of this movement is to inspire people to put on our Red Glasses and to live boldly, love big and pass it on, like Audrey did. Visit https://redglassesmovement.org for more information.
