Spread joy to people in need

Today, there are 43 million people in the world who are blind – but many don’t need to be. In developing countries, blindness denies people education, independence and the ability to work – things which can break the poverty cycle. This is a global challenge, but we know how to fix it. We focus on eliminating preventable eye diseases such as cataract, diabetic retinopathy and childhood blindness.

With your generous donation, we can train and empower local eye surgeons to provide sight restoring surgery and treatment, help build and equip more hospitals with critical eye healthcare services and organize eye screening camps to ensure early detection and timely treatment of eye diseases.

Every second counts in eliminating avoidable blindness, would you join our hands in these life changing works?

We accept:

You can donate via Alipay HK phone app, download the monthly donation form, or one-off donation form to support restoring sight worldwide. Receipt is available for donations of HKD100 or more. Please leave your name, email and addree with us.

Your tax-deductible donation will help us restore sight to those who are needlessly blind and improve the health of Indigenous Australians. Thank you. Privacy Notification Statement

Let’s end avoidable blindness together

Many people are blind because they don’t have access to quality and affordable eye health. Since The Foundation started 30 years ago, we’ve restored sight to more than 3 million people – often with a simple, 20 minute operation.

The world needs your generosity

The Fred Hollows Foundation delivers eye care services to people living in remote areas around the world. Your donation is very important to help us achieve our goal. Your donation will restore sight and change lives. Thanks so much for your generosity!

Your donation changes lives

The Fred Hollows Foundation estimates that every $1 invested in ending avoidable blindness can create four times the economic benefits.

Your monthly donation will create bigger impacts:

A monthly donation of HKD180 can restore sight to one person each month
A monthly donation of HKD350 can help set up an eye screening camp in a remote area
A monthly donation of HKD500 can help train an eye surgeon to perform as many as 1,000 operations each year

Why is it important to save sight?

Blindness is more than a health issue. It is also a social and economic problem. It is especially difficult for patients living in poverty and remote areas to seek medical help.

Some patients may not understand that eye diseases like cataract, trachoma and refractive error can be treated easily. Many patients cannot afford treatment or transport to see a doctor.

It can also be challenging for hospitals and clinics to provide simple eye services to patients. There may not be enough experienced medical staff and facilities.

Is my donation tax deductible?

Yes! A receipt is available for donations of HKD100 or more.
Will I get a receipt?

Yes! For one-off donations, we will email donation receipts immediately. Receipts for monthly donations will be mailed in April every year.
What will my donation be used for?

Your donation could be used to restore someone’s sight, but it may also go towards a range of other program activities like training surgeons or eye health workers. All of the work we do aims to build capacity in developing countries to create sustainable public eye health systems so your donation will help thousands of people in their communities into the future.
What methods of payment are accepted?

We welcome the use of Visa、Mastercard、American Express and Union Pay. You can use PayPal and credit cards for one-off donations. You can also use credit cards or direct debit for monthly donations.
