Why We Run

This year's support will help provide:

• Life-changing surgeries: cataract surgeries and specialized eye care for vulnerable patients at risk of preventable blindness
• Emergency services: food and health services for families affected by the ongoing crisis
• Sponsorship: for orphans in desperate need of care and support
• Basic essentials: including clean water, healthcare, shelter, and psychosocial support

Making an Impact

• 9,782 beneficiaries: reached
• 13,478 consultations: provided
• 122,562 services: clinical services delivered
• 1,136 surgeries: completed, including 359 cataract surgeries

Phase 2 of the eye care project is now underway, with more than 519 surgeries completed in its first two months across multiple specialties, including cataract, retinal, glaucoma, corneal, pediatric, and other vision-saving procedures.
