WE ARE BACK IN BUSINESS !
After the hiatus , medical supplies are being donated and shipped
. First ,we have a parallel operation in the country of Laos , adjoining Cambodia, with similar problems of poor subsistence farming villagers with a high cataract incidence.
We have been invited to assist ine their cataract outreach program and Doctor education program in September. Supplies are being shipped - somewhat expensively through Thailand ( because of USPS suspensions to Laos ) via USPS after repackaging at THE BLINDNESS FOUNDATION'sheadquarter's here in Newport beach.
This will be repeated in December for the CAMBODIAN EYE MISSION, when further lens implant supplies will be donated to the Hospitals we work with in Phnom Penh, Cambodia., and we can continue the surgical suppoert for theeye teams
Thank you all for keeping the faith and continued support during this challenging period, which is now waning.
The Eye clinics help preserve vision in both Laos and cambodia, restoring sight - marvellous to the cataract blind- folks who could never afford the surgical implants without the help of THE BLINDNESS FOUNDATION'S support.
Bless you all for your kind support
