Your gift in honor of your mother will help save the eyesight of people like Christine Akello, who suffer from river blindess and live in a region with no access to regular health care.
|
After years of suffering from painful river blindness symptoms while a civil war raged in her native Uganda, Christine Akello finally found relief through medicine distributed by The Carter Center and its partners. Now, her eyesight is almost back to normal and she can take care of her family once more. With continued drug treatment, she is hopeful for a full recovery. |
When you make a gift today, you and your mother will be our partners in fighting five other devastating neglected diseases too — Guinea worm, trachoma, lymphatic filariasis, schistosomiasis, and malaria. These diseases affect the poorest of the poor and, together, we can give them lasting solutions for treatment and prevention.
At the same time, you will help us safeguard some of the world's most vulnerable people against human rights abuses and violent conflict, giving them a chance at a peaceful existence.
Thank you for helping us alleviate suffering this Mother's Day. Thank you for choosing the gift of hope.
Sincerely,
P.S. Don't forget there are 12 other eCard designs to choose from on our Tribute Gift donation form. |
