The Fred Hollows Foundation: Rosebery

About

The Fred Hollows Foundation is an international development organisation working towards eliminating avoidable blindness and improving Indigenous Australian health. We are inspired by Professor Fred Hollows, a humanitarian, eye surgeon and social activist. Established in 1992, The Foundation continues in Fred's footsteps and now works in more than 25 countries around the world and here in Australia. Working with in-country partners, we perform surgeries, deliver local training, provide equipment, educate about eye health and advocate for change. By mobilising ordinary Australians we've raised the funds to reduce avoidable blindness. Just like Fred did, these individual donations are improving people's lives - in places like Kenya, Bangladesh, Cambodia and Ethiopia.
