Golden Memories from Bill
Little did I realise 25 years ago, back in 1999, as the then District Governor of District V2, the grant application to LCIF of which I was a signatory for funding of the original pilot program would evolve into the Eye Health program we offer today.
2024 Target Reached
To cap off World Sight Day 2024, we are very excited to announce that, ahead of schedule, we have reached our 2024 screening target of 12,000 children, screened since January 1st. Thank you to everyone who has been involved in meeting this milestone.

Our eyes are amazing!
