Sporting Kansas City announced on Thursday a partnership with Sabates Eye Centers as the team's official vision provider.
“We’re extremely excited to partner with Sporting Kansas City for the 2014 season,” said Dr. Nelson Sabates, president and CEO of Sabates Eye Centers. “Much like how Sabates has made vision care in Kansas City what it is today, Sporting Kansas City has made soccer a mainstay and tradition for our city.”
Sabates and Sporting Kansas City are both locally based companies that are committed to bettering the lives of Kansas Citians. Whether it is through Sabates leading the way in developing advanced procedures in eye care or Sporting Kansas City aiding in the fight against cancer through its Victory Project – they put helping people first.
“We are thrilled to announce Sabates Eye Centers as one of our newest partners for the 2014 season," said Jamie Guin, Vice President of Corporate Partnerships for Sporting Kansas City. "Sabates Eye Centers and Sporting Kansas City share a common vision, which is making Kansas City a better place to work, live and play."
Among the many elements to this partnership are a community outreach program and a Sabates Eye Centers title night. Sporting Kansas City, the 2013 MLS Cup champions, begin their season on March 8 versus the Seattle Sounders.
