When asked about the mission of the Optica Foundation, 2026 Optica President Gisele Bennett put it clearly: “We’re here to support the community as a whole.”

The Optica Foundation programs are here to empower students and early career professionals, providing them with training through the Career Accelerator on Optics and Photonics, building a community with the Optica Women Scholars, and more. 

Until 30 September, your gift will be matched dollar-for-dollar. Support the next generation at the link in our bio.
