The Fred hollows foundATION

​About The Fred Hollows Foundation
Fred Hollows believed that every eye is an eye and that whether a person is rich or poor, they should have the right to high quality and affordable eye care.
Fred got things done and put in motion a legacy to end avoidable blindness. That is why we have made it our mission to restore sight to the 4 out of 5 people who are needlessly blind.
The Fred Hollows Foundation works in more than 25 countries and has restored sight to over 2 million people worldwide.
Key facts:
·         32.4 million people in the world are blind.
·         4 out of 5 people who are blind don’t need to be.
·         Eye diseases like cataract, trachoma and diabetic retinopathy are often treatable or preventable.
·         In some countries where we work, sight can be restored for as little as $25.
·         The Foundation works around the world and in Indigenous communities in Australia.
