At the University of Washington, we are fundraising to eliminate patient barriers to care and to facilitate Unite For Sight’s comprehensive year-round eye care for patients living in extreme poverty.

Did you know that 80% of blindness is preventable or curable, and the life expectancy of blind persons is one-third less than that of their sighted peers? Make a global impact from campus! Unite For Sight’s chapter volunteers fundraise, and 100% goes directly to restoring sight and eliminating preventable blindness among those living in extreme poverty in developing countries. Our chapter will also hold global health events and activities. Join our global health delivery movement! We invite you to join the University of Washington chapter.
