Our commitment is to provide free eye surgery and associated medical treatment to restore the sight of the world’s most disadvantaged and desperate men, women and children. We believe that our work gives these people a reason to want to live, hope for a better, healthier life and an opportunity to contribute to their community. Our work now extends to the screening and provision of glasses or surg
ical treatment to schoolchildren in disadvantaged rural areas. It is all part of our commitment to delivering hope, the opportunity for education, and giving these children a better chance in life, despite the fact that they might have been born into poverty. Our objectives are:
- Relieve sickness and distress through the provision of medical assistance and by undertaking relief and sustainable development programs for people in Declared Developing Countries without favouritism or discrimination by race, religion, culture or political persuasion.
- Assist education of people in Declared Developing Countries for them to contribute to relief and sustainable development of their communities.
- Raise public awareness in Australia of the need to support these people who are in need of humanitarian aid, medical support, educational assistance and sustainable development. Support projects and activities of other charitable organisations.
