Families have no money to pay for surgical repair of afflicted children. Our team will repair them for free. Adults with cataracts will be repaired free. Hungry people will be fed. There are hundreds of thousands of underserved patients, and we have been doing such projects since 1994

These people will be able to lead normal lives.
