We believe the privileged have the duty to share their good fortune by compassionately serving those in need. Once helped, they can go from being the needy to becoming active and productive members of society.
We are determined to help eradicate preventable blindness.
Your support can make it possible.
Severe poverty is the spawning ground of preventative blindness. Such blindness creates even more desperate poverty and suffering. Restoring sight
can help us break this vicious circle.
Here is what your contribution to CBF will accomplish:

is the difference between a lifetime of disability and destitution and a lifetime of productive work and family.

will restore the sight of one person by cataract surgery.
will save a child from going blind from vitamin A deficiency.
will allow one more person to see their family and friends once again. |
If you are in the Madison area, and would like to volunteer or intern in our local office, we would love to hear from you.
If you are an active leader in the eye-care industry, or an avid supporter in eliminating blindness, and would like to give a lecture or seminar on Combat Blindness to your community, please feel free to contact us at your convenience. We hope we can work together to educate and make a difference.
If you would like to travel to one of our current eye camps and volunteer to educate villagers or assist physicians, we would also love to hear from you!
