Winners from last year’s 'The Right To See' photo competition embarked on an extraordinary journey in South Africa to help people in the Hoedspruit community with critical vision screenings and prescription glasses. By treating vision issues, our volunteers are providing community members with equal opportunities in education, safer driving and the ability to work comfortably.

During the five-day vision clinic, volunteers screened 1,210 beneficiaries and dispensed 871 glasses to those in need.

With the support of volunteers and partners, the Foundation remains determined to eliminate uncorrected poor vision. We believe 'The Right to See’ is a fundamental human right, check out our South Africa clinic video to witness how proper vision empowers people to “see more and be more”.
