Story

On Saturday 16 October, we are going to great heights to raise funds to give the gift of sight to people in some of the world's poorest countries. We will be dropping 150 feet from the top of the Hogan Stand to raise funds, and we need you to support us! For adults living in some of the poorest parts of the world, conditions such as cataract, and diseases like trachoma and river blindness can not only deprive them of their sight. They can also deprive them of their independence, and their ability to earn a living and feed their families. And for children, the condition can deny them an education and the chance to become part of their community. But this World Sight Day, you can help us change this. Please consider donating to my page.
