My Goal
USD 500

 

This Page is fundraising for:

Eighty percent of blindness is avoidable, and for as little as US$30, a person’s sight can be restored. Seeing is Believing is a collaboration between the International Agency for Prevention of Blindness and Standard Chartered Bank. Together we’ve set an ambitious target of raising $100m by 2020 to tackle preventable blindness. Every time someone makes a donation, Standard Chartered will match it dollar for dollar – doubling the impact of the pledge.

Page information:

Seeing is Believing is Standard Chartered’s (“the Bank”) global initiative to tackle avoidable blindness and visual impairment.
It is a collaboration with The International Agency for the Prevention of Blindness (IAPB) and leading eye health organisations. It raises funds for investment in eye health projects that aim to have long-term impact in areas of high need.


The 2015 Ride for Sight Event is a bike ride fundraiser from Saratoga, NY to New York, NY on June 29-July 1. My Bank, Standard Chartered Bank is sponsoring a team of cyclists to complete the 3-day ride with hopes to raise USD100,000+ for Seeing is Believing. The bank will match all monies raised by the cyclists.

If you know me well, you will know that Laura will not be riding...but rather cheering on these riders as they cycle the long way!

Any small donation can greatly help the beautiful gift of sight.

Thank you for Your Generosity!

Date: June 29, 2015 to July 1, 2015
