Your support enables Seva to build sustainable systems worldwide that provide critical eye care to the underserved – especially women, children, and indigenous communities. You can help children go back to school, adults go back to work, and communities thrive. When more people can see and lead healthy, productive lives, entire communities are transformed.
For just $50, you can provide sight-restoring cataract surgery to someone who is blind and transform their life!
The Malik family, from West Bengal, knows this firsthand. Four generations of one family were born with congenital cataracts. Work, school, and everyday life for the entire family was shrouded in a blur.
Sarama, 62, was born with congenital cataracts-a genetic condition. Like her mother and siblings, she could barely see. She’s had a series of accidents; once, while walking in the field, she held up a snake thinking it was a dried coconut leaf. Sarama’s two sons and two grandsons also lived with cataracts.
But your motivation to create change helped lift Sarama and her family from darkness.
Through our partner in the region, Sarama, her sons, and grandsons were all provided with sight-restoring cataract surgery. Practically overnight, each of their lives changed. “I can see so clearly! I can even see tiny insects now for the first time in my life!” exclaimed Sarama. “I cannot express how happy I am!”
