Alliance for Sight: A Special Thank You

ORBIS International would like to thank its many corporate sponsors for their financial support. This support means the world to those whose lives have been affected by severe vision loss or blindness.

Our global and international sponsors make up the Alliance for Sight. The Alliance for Sight brings together the power of our corporate and foundation sponsors who make extraordinary and continuing commitments to our mission. These contributions range from major multi-year cash grants to critically needed gifts-in-kind for ORBIS medical training programs. ORBIS corporate and foundation sponsors visibly share our long-term commitment to ending avoidable blindness throughout the world.

For information on how to join the Alliance for Sight, please e-mail sponsorship@orbis.org. To learn more about sponsorship opportunities, click here.
