| DONATE NOW TO DOUBLE YOUR GIFT » Give Hope for #GivingTuesday. Help End Blinding Trachoma. |
| Dear Pr Manuel Alberto, By making a #GivingTuesday gift today, you can help bring hope into the lives of some of the world’s poorest and most forgotten people — saving them from the darkness and despair of blinding trachoma.
Trachoma is the world's leading cause of infectious blindness. It is a bacterial disease and causes terrible, ongoing pain, stigma, and disability, reinforcing cycles of poverty and hindering long-term development. Of the 190 million people at risk for trachoma, most are children, and women are almost twice as likely as men to develop the advanced stage of it that causes blindness. With support from donors like you, we have eliminated blinding trachoma in Ghana, and now we are working on this same goal in Mali and Niger. For a limited time, The Conrad N. Hilton Foundation will double all gifts, up to a total of $5.1 million, that support the elimination of blinding trachoma in Mali and Niger. So please act today. With this special match, your $25 becomes $50, $50 becomes $100, $100 becomes $200, and so on. Doubling your gift means TWICE the impact! Using the proven, low-cost SAFE strategy — Surgery, Antibiotics, Facial cleanliness, and Environmental improvement — we can put an end to the excruciating pain and loss of vision caused by trachoma. Your matched gift will mean:
Support like yours helps The Carter Center pioneer community-based interventions to educate people and help them adopt healthy behaviors. In addition to leading the world in sight-saving eyelid surgeries and drug distribution for neglected tropical diseases (including trachoma), we train field personnel and thousands of local volunteers how to encourage preventive practices. Please make a gift today. Help put proven strategies into action in Mali and Niger. Your generosity will help build new networks of health personnel and volunteers in areas where previously there were no services and no hope. Don’t miss this special opportunity to save people from blindness and change their lives forever. With sincere gratitude,  Jimmy Carter Co-Founder and Trustee The Carter Center P.S. Your #GivingTuesday gift will have an even bigger impact than you think. The trachoma health education and interventions we bring to villages in Mali and Niger will help prevent several other neglected tropical diseases at the same time. |
