Story

Thank you so much for visiting my page.

Did you know that one in fifth of the world's blind population is in India? Without vision they can't work & entire families are trapped in poverty.

But, in many cases, there is a cure. 

That's why the Sankara Eye Foundation's mission is to build state-of-the-art free eye hospitals.

They're able to do it through charity events like this one...

I'm climing Mount Toubkal to help give more people the gift of sight. 

Any donations are much appreciated: thank you so much.
