CBM (Christian Blind Mission), the overseas disability charity

CBM鈥檚 work transforms the lives of people in the world鈥檚 poorest places.聽 We help people who are blind or living with other disabilities, and those at risk of disability, to access health care, go to school, earn a living and be respected in their communities.聽

鈥淲ill my boy go blind?鈥

鈥淲ill my boy go blind?鈥
Zaina was desperately worried when she noticed 2 year-old Abraham鈥檚 sight problems.聽 For children living in poverty in rural Tanzania, losing sight almost always means losing the chance to go to school or to earn a living when they grow up.

Sight-saving treatment out of reach

Sight-saving treatment out of reach

Abraham was born with cataracts, the most common cause of blindness worldwide. Cataracts can be removed with straightforward surgery. But Zaina, struggling to put food on the table, couldn鈥檛 hope to pay for treatment or even the bus fare to the nearest eye hospital.聽
