Reena will help continue CBI's legacy of reducing preventable blindness and serving those less fortunate.

"At CBI, we have always had a mission to reach the most vulnerable around the world — to bring eye care to those who have no resources."

Suresh Chandra, MD

"The people we are providing sight to today - that becomes a generational gift. The gift is fed down through their grandchildren's children, on and on, and it provides an amazing benefit."

John Hurckman

"The one thing I want people to know about CBI is that for $25, you completely change someone's life."

Zoe Scott

"The people who are working at CBI are pretty amazing. What they do, is absolutely life-changing. Because of that, I became a part of it."
