Your Impact.
International Packages:
A major hurdle that we face as we begin to address blindness, apart from the medical care facilities, is the cost of service. Aside from proximity to eye-facilities, the inability to afford treatment is the major factor affecting rural care.
Donations of any kind can go a long way, aiding in anything from structural development to individual eye treatment. Dekhon offers donation packages, which show just how far your contribution can go towards changing a life.
