Respected Donor,
Thank you for donating to LRBT and believing in our mission of eradicating blindness from Pakistan.
LRBT plans to open the next hospital in Rahim Yaar Khan as Punjab region (this sector) has no free eye care facility near this region..
Punjab, has a population of around 110 million people, the vast bulk of who live in abject poverty. Eye care facilities especially in smaller towns and rural areas are either not available or are far beyond the reach of the poor and even the lower middle class. LRBT with its free eye car services is their only hope. There are an estimated 12. 1 million blind & visually impaired people in Punjab of which an estimated 1.2 million are blind . An additional 120,000 go blind every year.We have a long way to go to collect funds for our new hospital 's operational costs.
Thank you for your generous support and keep supporting us.
Warm regards,
Shabana S
