60-year-old Tinsue Mebrahtu is a recent patient at a Cure Blindness Project-supported outreach in Ethiopia. Both blind and deaf, Tinsue lived in a dark and silent world. Her isolated existence is unimaginable. With bandages removed following her cataract surgery, she immediately became overwhelmed. Instead of telling you how she felt, let us show you.
Did you know that cataracts are the leading cause of blindness in the world and they are often curable? Your donation of $700 can restore sight to TEN people—and with our June Match Challenge, will be doubled to help 20 people!
