Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

I have personally volunteered with this charity and worked with them for 2 weeks in Meru, Kenya.

SeeKenya is a UK based charity working to reduce blindness and provide specialist treatment and eye care services to marginalised communities within Kenya. With over 95% of Kenyans living without access to eye care, there is a desperate need for help. Working with their local church partners they are able to provide basic eye drops for the treatment of trachoma – the leading form of infectious blindness in children, perform cataract surgery and supply pairs of readymade glasses with prescription lenses.

I have seen this charity first hand change the lives of the youngest being around 4 to the oldest being 90 odd years of age. It’s truly incredible.

Once I have acheived the target I have set to raise I will shave off my entire head of hair.

I have also attached a link so you can read more about this wonderful charity.

In Kenya too many people's lives are unnecessarily limited by blindness or impaired vision, simply because the eye care they need isn't available. SeeKenya provides trustworthy, high quality and life-improving eye care to prevent blindness, restore sight and improve eye health.
