Raise funds

It’s great that you want to get active and raise funds for better eye care. Your efforts give someone in Asia, South America or Africa a chance at better sight. And that means a lot. You allow someone to see their children or grandchildren again, to be able to work and to feel part of their community and society. For just €35,- we can perform an eye exam or give someone in need prescription glasses or contact lenses. Let’s get active.
