My story

 

This will help about 15 more people with eye operations . Once we reach this target, we will do a new fundraising appeal for another batch of the same and  so on. Photos of eye patients we treated with your money will be provided on our website -

SAVE A SIGHT APPEAL - Mercy Mankind Intl
Thanks for visiting our fundraising page

If you are a non-UK donor, you can donate in DOLLARS using other methods on our website www.MercyMankind.org and then just drop us an email using the contact page on our site. (We will then update this page with your donation amount)

Following our success with an eye camp for refugees in May 2008 (photos are on our website) , we decided to help more extremely poor people. We have been doing eye operations in Bangladesh and Pakistan monhly, since that time. Photos are all on our website, http://www.mercymankind.org/ourwork.html click on MAY 2008 and on any month after that (you will see photos of eye ops from Bangladesh and/or Pakistan) , all done on a rolling basis

 They were a combination of refugees, people who beg for a living or are too poor to afford treatment. We have seen people who cannot see and cannot seek treatment because they have no money. The operations will be mainly in Bangladesh as thats where we have the most staff at present.

Our target is to help people with eye cataract operations and/or medicines. Each  eye  operation for cataracts will cost roughly £40 in Bangladesh.  They used to cost £30 but because the UK econmy is going down the pan, the exchange rate has become unfavourable and hence its now £40 :( 

Anyway, work will be done on a rolling basis, as funds come in. We are not funded by any organisation and rely completely on your donations. All photos are presented online a month later

Please support our work and you will see how your money helps bring a smile. The boy in the photo is a UN Burmese refugee who we treated last year. Please spread the word.

Oh, and don't forget to check out our other regular monthly projects and please do signup to our free newsletter sent out once a month- our website is waiting for you !

Many thanks,
