Training Teachers in Ethiopia to Save Sight
Organization information
Orbis Ireland
Location: Blackrock, Ireland
Summary
Orbis is dedicated to the treatment and prevention of avoidable blindness. Through supporting this project you will enable teachers to educate children on the importance of eye care. Few people realise that, in Ethiopia, blindness can result from a disease easily transmitted between infected and healthy eyes by flies or infected clothing, and a lack of clean water to wash. Through educating children we can ensure the next generation in Ethiopia grow up without the threat of avoidable blindness.
