Dear Friend of Unite For Sight,

We will be very grateful for your support during this holiday season.  The average cost of a cataract surgery is $50, which means that $50 will enable someone who is blind to have their sight restored, and $250 enables five people to have their sight restored.  Any contribution amount is appreciated, and no amount will go unnoticed.  Donating to provide the gift of sight is a meaningful gift for a loved one this holiday season, and 100% of your tax-deductible contribution to Unite For Sight goes directly to restoring sight for patients living in extreme poverty.  Can you imagine impacting another person's life in a more significant way?  Please donate by clicking here: http://www.uniteforsight.org/give

Our impact: Unite For Sight is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization that is a recognized global health leader <http://www.uniteforsight.org/volunteer-abroad/awards>, and we address health care delivery for patients living in extreme poverty.  Our innovative programs in Ghana, Honduras, and India have provided the highest quality of care to 1.5 million of the world's poorest people <http://www.uniteforsight.org/what-we-do/results>, including 61,724 sight-restoring surgeries. The eye care is provided by local eye doctors.  The communities where we work did not previously have access to eye care due to many barriers. Unite For Sight's model has enabled local eye clinics to create real change and a sustainable impact for those living in extreme poverty.

An example of our success: Unite For Sight has partnered with five of the forty-five ophthalmologists in Ghana.  Unite For Sight's five ophthalmologist partners (11% of the ophthalmologists in the country) are providing more than 50% of all surgeries done in Ghana, and those surgeries are provided to patients living in extreme poverty who would otherwise be unable to access or afford quality care.  It is a privilege and honor to support the remarkable work of our local partner eye clinics as they provide eye care for patients in their country.

Our leading financial model: 100% of all donations provide eye care for patients living in extreme poverty, and 0% is used for any other purpose.  Learn more about our leading financial model: http://www.uniteforsight.org/what-we-do/financial-model

Thank you for your time and consideration.  We look forward to whatever support you can provide: http://www.uniteforsight.org/give

With warmest holiday wishes,
Unite For Sight's Global Team
