Give light to a life: Dona for cataract surgery

Cataracts are the main cause of blindness in Guatemala. Although surgery can restore sight, thousands of people continue to live with visual impairment because they cannot afford the procedure.

With your help, we can change this. Our goal is to reduce the amount necessary to finance a completely free cataract surgery for a person living in extreme poverty.

What our Sponsors are Saying

Thanks to the educational center of the Benemérito Comité, my daughter, who has a hearing disability, learned to communicate and now dreams of becoming a teacher. As a mother, I never imagined we’d have access to such specialized and affordable education.
María
Beneficiary
I had cataract surgery at one of the Comité’s hospitals and regained my sight after years of darkness. I thought losing vision was just part of aging, but now I can work, read, and take care of myself again.
Ernesto
Beneficiary
I lost my vision as an adult and didn’t know how to move forward. At the rehabilitation center, I learned how to navigate, use a cane, and communicate. After completing my training, I found a job. Through the Comité, I regained my independence.
Lucía
Beneficiary
Perdí la vista siendo adulta y no sabía cómo seguir adelante. En el centro de rehabilitación aprendí a orientarme, usar el bastón y comunicarme. Luego de terminar mi rehabilitación conseguí un empleo. A través del Comité recuperé mi independencia.
