The Gift of Sight

A message from Charlie Bresler, Co-Founder & Board Member.

Reminder: For those in the US, donate before the end of December to get a tax-deductible donation before the end of this financial year.

We often speak about impact and cost-effectiveness. Fred Hollows and Seva exemplify these principles. For as little as US$50, these nonprofits treat children like Tiek, while training a guide in the U.S. costs approximately US$7,000.

Please compare the value of giving generously to our best charities compared to much of what we spend our money on. Here is an opportunity that is hard to pass on.

The Fred Hollows Foundation: A child's brain can lose the ability to see if they do not have their sight restored in time. Tiek's cataracts had to be removed or his chance to see would be lost forever.

Do Good. Feel Good.
