How you can help

There are plenty of ways you can save sight and help fight blindness. Read more below and give someone the gift of sight today.

Give a donation

When you donate to Orbis you can have an enormous impact on people's lives in some of the poorest parts of the world. We'll use your gift where it's needed the most. It could help pay for a sight-restoring cataract operation, protect communities from blinding trachoma or even give a child a pair of glasses that will help them continue in school.

Give a monthly donation

Giving a monthly gift to Orbis helps us give the gift of sight to those who need it the most. It’s a very efficient way to give a gift and it helps us plan where to spend the money most effectively. This all adds up to make a monthly donation to Orbis the best way you can save people’s sight in the poorest parts of the world.

Become a Corporate Partner

Are you looking to support a charity that’s large enough to create meaningful change, but small enough that you feel your contribution makes a difference? Do you have a strategic interest in vision or aviation, or are you looking for a cause that will have a broad appeal to your employees, clients and stakeholders?
