“Every eye is an eye. When you are doing surgery there, that is just as important as if you were doing eye surgery on the Prime Minister or King.”
- Fred Hollows
Fred knew that every eye counts. Our caring and compassionate supporters like you have shown time and again that you agree with Fred. Everytime someone like you supports our sight-restoring work, you show people like Juan that she counts.
MAKE SOMEONE COUNT BY DONATING NOW
It worries me that there are 43.3 million people who are blind worldwide, but luckily more than 90% of it is preventable or treatable. But the other worrying thing is that over 90% of these cases are in middle or low income countries, where eye care isn’t easily accessible.
Thanks to the kindness of people like you, The Foundation is able to restore sight to people like Juan in the most remote parts of the world by training local health workers and strengthening local health systems.
With your generous support, we can make a difference in the lives of vulnerable people in the 25 countries where we work, showing them that they count.
