Every day a child is enabled to see their mother for the first time – bringing joyful tears to all, vision is restored to jobless youths thus enabling them to become earning members of the family, and scores of elderly are helped to live their lives happily and independently.

At Al-Shifa, we help retrieve the colors of life! “Yes I can see,” this was the spontaneous response of Mutalli, who was recently restored vision after a successful operation at Al-Shifa Eye Trust Hospital. Please donate generously and make a difference in changing the lives of thousands of needy patients.
